Courses Held Outside EMBL-EBIApply now to host an EBI training roadshowWould you like EBI trainers to come to you and teach your researchers how to use databases relevant to their research? EMBL-EBI's intrepid crew of user training experts has travelled to every continent training experimental researchers how to use public-domain biological data with confidence. Why not apply for them to train at your institute? Please note that if you are looking for only one resource, some teams (e.g. Ensembl and PDBe) arrange their own training events. To organise an Ensembl workshop contact their outreach team at: The roadshow combines presentations and hands-on practical sessions in which users are guided through their selected databases and tools by expert trainers. Roadshows are suitable for researchers with a biological background but little or no previous knowledge of the resources presented. The Roadshow programme has been running since 2006 and trainers are in such great demand that we have decided to implement an application procedure. Calls will be opened twice a year. Our goal is to provide training to those institutes that clearly demonstrate immediate and longer-term benefits to their own research and that of their neighbouring research institutes. Our long-term goal is to help host institutes to develop their own user training for bioinformatics data resources, with occasional help from EBI trainers. Key dates for 2012
