Own training courses

ZIMT organizes a series of training courses on scientific computing and HPC. The most important training course is the cluster introduction course, which every person using the cluster should have attended at least once. This takes place at least once every semester, alternating between German and English. The slides are always in English and are available for download for past training courses.
