Description
This event will induct members of the EGEE project who have no prior Grid experience. It is a “beta-release” of this course. Participants will gain: 1. Understanding of general Grid and e-Science concepts 2. Orientation to the EGEE infrastructure and middleware 3. Experience from use of an EGEE testbed, GILDA, via the GENIUS portal. 4. Understanding of the goals, context and structure of the EGEE project 5. Awareness of current project procedures and tools The trainers will receive feedback to refine the content.
