BCO-DMO Workshops
A summary of useful tutorials and workshops for the BCO-DMO user community
Data-related workshops and training
Here is a list of workshops staff members of BCO-DMO have taught in the past. All of the workshops are data-related and could potentially be useful for the community that BCO-DMO serves.
When teaching workshops, we mostly follow The Carpentries style workshops (instructors are trained in pedagogy and focus on creating a motivating and engaging environment for learners).
