OSCER users, FREE FREE FREE FREE FREE FREE FREE FREE FREE FREE FREE FREE Registration is OPEN for the FREE Virtual Residency 2022 Summer Workshop on Research Computing Facilitation June 27 - July 1! JUST ADDED: TOPIC LIST! (Tentative; see below.) We now have an onsite option as well as the Zoom option! https://ousurvey.qualtrics.com/jfe/form/SV_eIL6760A3nvNv1A (If you've already registered, or you've already told me that you won't be able to participate, please feel free to ignore this ....) --- SUMMARY: Virtual Residency 2022 Summer Workshop on INTRODUCTORY Research Computing Facilitation [The previous mailing incorrectly said intermediate/advanced.] Mon June 27 (morning) - Fri July 1 (late afternoon) 2022 Onsite in person AND remote via videoconferencing Registration: https://ousurvey.qualtrics.com/jfe/form/SV_eIL6760A3nvNv1A Contact: Henry Neeman ([log in to unmask]) There's NO PREREQUISITE other than an interest in helping researchers with their computing-intensive/data-intensive research. (Participation in any previous Virtual Residency workshop is NOT REQUIRED.) Please feel free to forward this to anyone who may be interested and appropriate. DETAILS: Does your institution have lots of researchers and educators who want to use advanced computing, but need some help learning how? You or someone at your institution can learn to be more effective at helping researchers and educators use research computing! This is a great way to get better at a career in helping researchers use research computing. It's also a great way to meet a community of fellow research computing facilitators. --- The Virtual Residency Program has already served: 1120 people from 417 institutions in all 50 US states and 4 US territories plus 13 other countries on 5 continents, including: * 63 Minority Serving Institutions (15% of VRP institutions); * 112 non-PhD-granting institutions, including 4 community colleges and 3 high schools (27% of VRP institutions); * 114 institutions in all 28 EPSCoR jurisdictions (27% of VRP institutions); * 281 of 353 Campus Champion institutions (67% of VRP institutions, 80% of Campus Champion institutions). And, 78% of VRP institutions have had participants who collectively have participated in VRP activities multiple times, and 67% of VRP institutions have had participants who collectively have participated in multiple types of VRP activities. Taking into account institutions already served by the Virtual Residency and institutions that are scheduled to be served by this coming summer's workshop: * in the latest Carnegie Classification ratings: -- 123 of 131 (94%) of R1 institutions (Carnegie Very High Research Activity), -- 80 of 135 (59%) of R2 institutions (Carnegie High Research Activity); * in the latest US News rankings of national universities: -- all but one of the Top 10, -- 23 of the Top 25 (88%, because #25 is a 2-way tie); -- 47 of the Top 50 (87%, because #49 is a 6-way tie), -- 85 of the Top 100 (83%, because #99 is a 4-way tie), -- 125 of the Top 150 (78%, because #148 is a 14-way tie), -- 145 of the Top 200 (72%, because #196 is a 6-way tie). (This takes into account all of the Virtual Residency activities: workshops in 2015-21, a couple of mini-workshops run separately by the U California system, the Virtual Residency workshop planning calls, the Grant Proposal Writing Apprenticeship, the Paper Writing Apprenticeship, the Grant Running Apprenticeship, and preregistrations for the 2022 workshop.) Clarifying, since this question has come up in the past: You *DON'T* have to participated in ANY past Virtual Residency event (including this year's workshop planning calls), NOR in Campus Champions NOR Campus Research Computing Consortium (CaRCC) efforts, in order to participate in the 2022 Virtual Residency workshop -- though of course everyone in those groups are encouraged to apply! --- TOPIC LIST (tentative) * Virtual Residency Overview * Effective Communication: How to Talk to Researchers about Their Research * Faculty: Tenure, Promotion, Reward System * Cyberinfrastructure User Support * Cyberinfrastructure Tour: How to Give One, and Why * Cyberinfrastructure Landscape: Systems, Service Providers, Technologies * Intake Interview Practicum * Components/Design of an HPC Cluster * Research Networking Overview * CyberAmbassadors I & II [topics to be announced] * Panel: Researcher Perspectives: What Do Researchers Need from CI Facilitators? * Cyberinfrastructure Landscape: Organizations * Deploying Community Codes * Debugging & Tuning * Panel: Cyberinfrastructure Organization Leader Perspectives: What Do Cyberinfrastructure Organizations Need from Their CI Facilitators? * Research Data Management * Stories from the Trenches
