SUMMARY:Pawsey Training Goes Remote: Experiences and Best Practices
DESCRIPTION:Workshop\n\nPawsey Training Goes Remote: Experiences and Best 
 Practices\n\nBackhaus, Cytowski\n\nThe Pawsey Supercomputing Centre has of
 fered a variety of education, training and outreach activities for a numbe
 r of years, most of which has been face-to-face or in-person.  As with oth
 er training providers, the global pandemic has forced us to look afresh at
  our offerings. We faced two main challenges, moving all learning activiti
 es online and doing so with a team of scientists and computer specialists 
 for whom training is an added passion/responsibility, rather than their "d
 ay job".  We have trialled a number of techniques and approaches. Based on
  user feedback, we have developed a scaffolded approach that seeks to move
  the learner up the learning curve from awareness to guided use to adoptio
 n (where appropriate). The outcomes are a more purposeful and creative app
 roach to training, more inclusive outreach and unexpected partnerships. We
  are expanding our open repository of materials covering different aspects
  of HPC systems usage, parallel programming techniques as well as cloud, v
 isualization, and data resources’ usage. Training programs developed at th
 e Pawsey Supercomputing Centre over the last few years are globally recogn
 ized and used for various training, hack-a-thon and tutorial events as wel
 l as educational courses. In this paper, we will share our experience in u
 sing different virtual training techniques and tools to address specific l
 earning outcomes. The overall goal is to emphasize that there is no univer
 sal, one-size-fits-all learning solution, but instead, various solutions a
 nd platforms that need to be carefully selected for different groups of in
 terest.\n\nTag: Education, Training and Outreach, HPC Training and Educati
