Software Carpentry

                                       
There is a rising demand for digital skills and coding in particular, but people are often unsure where to start. Join the Software Carpentry community for hands-on training in a friendly and supportive environment. You don't need any prior experience: just curiosity to learn and time to attend one of our sessions.
These short, hands-on seminars run over two days and will introduce you to the basics of research computing, including programming, version control and task automation. You can find more information about the Carpentries here Links to an external site..
