Dear all, I extend an invitation for you to attend Software Carpentry: Conestoga College on Saturday, April 2 and Sunday, April 3 at the college's Doon campus in Kitchener.


This collaborative workshop between the college, SHARCNET, Compute Ontario, and Compute Canada will feature introductory courses in the Unix shell, version control with Git, programming with Python, and managing data with SQL.


The workshop is free to attend but does require registration.  For more information, and to register for a free ticket, please visit:

Attendees will be provided with free Tim Hortons coffee and Tim Bits, and there will be draws for two Raspberry Pi computers, two $20 Conestoga Bookstore giftcards, and two $20 Chartwells lunch cards throughout the two days of courses!


If interested, I encourage you to immediately register for a free ticket.  Last month when we organized a similar event in high performance computing, tickets were 'sold out' 40 hours after invitations were sent out.


Thanks all, very much looking forward to seeing you again at another exciting workshop at the college!
