## CodeRefinery short update newsletter June 2024 --- Hei, hej, moi, and hi! We have been quiet for a while, but this does not mean that there is nothing happening, we actually have a bunch of announcements, we would like to share with you: # CodeRefinery train the trainer workshop, 4 sessions, every Tuesday between August 13 and September 3, 2024 Do you teach the use of computers and computational tools? Are you curious about scaling your training and learn about tested and proven practices from CodeRefinery workshops and other trainers? Join us for the CodeRefinery train the trainer workshop: four self-contained sessions on tools and techniques for computational training offer a great chance to enhance your teaching skills and learn about new tools and practices: https://coderefinery.github.io/train-the-trainer/ # CodeRefinery workshop - September 10-12 & 17-19, 2024 Are you writing code and managing data for your research? Do you feel like wasting too much time on manual work? Do you struggle to understand and reuse older code? Join the CodeRefinery workshop, for free and online. The workshop covers good coding practices, reproducible research principles, and using Git for collaboration. It offers breakout room exercises with team leaders, and you can register as a team or volunteer as a team leader. But you can also follow on your own if you prefer. In-person exercise sessions are available in some locations. Registration will open soon and we will send a short update when the registration page is ready. # Ambassador program We started a CodeRefinery ambassador program! Do you like what we do and would like to help spread the word to your community? -> Become an ambassador! We will provide materials for you to include in your talks, posters, and trainings at events (you may anyway be attending). You can also get CodeRefinery goodies to distribute at events. We can also support you to start your own local community of CodeRefinery enthusiasts or other activities. Let us know if you want to be an ambassador and/or have any questions by signing up for our ambassador email list (https://postit.csc.fi/sympa/subscribe/coderefinery-ambassadors/) or chat with us in our Zulip chat (#coderefinery > CodeRefinery Ambassador). We will get back after summer with even more news and possibilities to get involved. If you have any questions, suggestions, ideas or concerns, please do not hesitate to contact us at support@coderefinery.org Have a wonderful summer and hope to see many of you around!
