WestDRI
Welcome to WestDRI's YouTube Channel for archives of its online training events. We are part of the Research Computing Group at SFU (https://www.rcg.sfu.ca), and we offer a range of tutorials and online workshops targeted at helping researchers learn about and use SFU's and the Digital Research Alliance of Canada (https://alliancecan.ca) computing resources, as well as advance their skills in computational research. Sessions range in length from 30 minutes to two hours and are delivered online via Zoom. For more information, visit https://training.westdri.ca or email [email protected].
