Each day we will have morning (9:30am - 12:30pm) and afternoon (1:30m - 4:30pm) sessions. There will be short coffee breaks at 11:00am and 3:00pm with coffee and snacks covered by the registration fee. Participants will have to find lunch on their own.
You can attend as many or as few of the courses as you want. All sessions will be in-person at the Big Data Hub at SFU’s main (Burnaby) campus, in the Applied Sciences Building (top floor).
To participate in the hands-on exercises, you will need to bring your own laptop. We will provide guest accounts on our HPC training cluster. For more specific requirements, please see the individual course pages.
