Description
The IRIS-HEP training program and the HEP Software Foundation (HSF), collaborate and co-organize software training events for the high-energy physics community. These activities include hands-on workshops and schools that focus on modern software, computing, and analysis tools. The program addresses the need for both general computational skills and domain-specific knowledge required to effectively contribute to HEP software.
In this presentation, we describe the work involved in planning, coordinating, and delivering these training events for a large and international audience. We will discuss approaches to motivating learners, accommodating participants with varied backgrounds, and sustaining a training framework that supports the development of future researchers and software practitioners, HEP in particular.
