[Roadmap- draft](https://drive.google.com/file/d/1XKkuH-H4q00NFu9iigobUGFmrjLbIx95/view?usp=share_link) and [Work Programme - draft](https://drive.google.com/file/d/1jKQTUR-GnNiYRLgWSOotPcZ290-qfLV6/view?usp=share_link) Events: SciLifeLab site days (17/4 Göteborg, EMBL/SciLifeLab workshop (15--16 May), |
Question about someone taking a NBIS course for the second time (happend for the RNAseq course last week). Does NBIS have any policies/guidelines for this? In application form we ask (mandatory question) if they taken any other NBIS course (yes/no question? or free text?).
General thinking is that a participant that have temen the course previously should not take a seat from another "new" participant. Also, be more careful regarding pre-requisites (if you have data/project to apply the knowledge gained directly after the course).
