Speakers
Report on the experience (or the proposed activity). It would be very important to mention key services which are essential for the success of your activity on the EGEE infrastructure.
The presentation will also include an overview of practical experiences with grid
users and their needs. User feedback is an important aspect of training
provision but it is often difficult to obtain comprehensive and reliable data.
Approaches to improving this feedback will be explored.
Describe the added value of the Grid for the scientific/technical activity you (plan to) do on the Grid. This should include the scale of the activity and of the potential user community and the relevance for other scientific or business applications
The presentation will examine current models used for giving courses in a grid
environment. The demand for different types of training courses - Induction,
Application Development, site administrator, Training Trainers - will be explored.
Describe the scientific/technical community and the scientific/technical activity using (planning to use) the EGEE infrastructure. A high-level description is needed (neither a detailed specialist report nor a list of references).
The EGEE project creates a need for provision of training covering a wide range
of topics and user communities. The presentation will summarise experiences of
trainers and present and future requirements for training by the wide variety of
users of the EGEE infrastructure.
With a forward look to future evolution, discuss the issues you have encountered (or that you expect) in using the EGEE infrastructure. Wherever possible, point out the experience limitations (both in terms of existing services or missing functionality)
The presentation will conclude with a look to the future of grid training in the
light of the ever-expanding subject areas deploying grid applications. The
provision of online resources such as e-Learning modules, digital libraries and
online user documentation will be explored and mechanisms for support of
these resources discussed.
