--- tags: workshop --- # Planning: Workshops 2022 spring From discussions at the [2021-09-20 community call](https://coderefinery.org/about/community-call/): If we have two big CodeRefinery workshops, what would be the optimal times of the year? This way other organizations could adapt to it a bit like summer school at PDC which is always in August and everybody knows it coordinate with carpentries and/or HPC stuff Spring: avoid Easter (before to avoid work in Easter). Sweden, weeks 8/9. Denmark weeks 6/7. Decide via chat, before Easter. Easter: FI=17.apr. Aiming at late March 2022 which is hopefully far enough away from winter holidays and also well ahead of Easter holidays (Mar 21 - Apr 1, weeks 12-13)? ## The list Specify dates as **under consideration** or **confirmed** Suggestion: For each event, be two persons who now in the early stage take a lead role to drive the planning forward - **HPC Winter kickstart** -- Dates: 2022/01/21,24,25 (dates under consideration) -- Interested: Aalto -- Lead organizers: rkdarst/eglerean? -- Examples from past runs: https://scicomp.aalto.fi/training/scip/winter-kickstart/ - **Big Code Refinery workshop, Spring 2022** -- Dates: Late March 2022.
