3 Enabling Grids for E-sciencE EGEE-III INFSO-RI-222667 NA3 – Gergely Sipos - EGEE-III Final Review 23-24 June 2010 3 NA3 objectives in EGEE-III Activity objectives –Expand and refine the training material and courses, to provide training resources for an ever-widening range of Grid applications. –Train a wide variety of users, within EGEE consortium & outside users of other middleware. –Develop mechanisms for passing on knowledge to end-users of EGEE related projects. –Expand online learning services, meeting the needs of an expanded project and larger user-base. –Support the provision of t-Infrastructure on the GILDA testbed by developing/maintaining training resources to cover diverse range of application scenarios. Priorities in 2 nd year Scalability and sustainability –Autonomous national training groups established at every NGI –Integration of t-Infrastructure into production infrastructure –Continuation of training services in EGI is ensured

Keeping trainer registry up to date –Not all the accredited trainers are in the people registry –How and when to modify/remove a trainer registration? Maintenance of content in Digital library Keeping the critical number of sites in the training VO –How to accept short-lived training certificates issued by different NGIs? Virtual Research Community proposals not funded but scientific communities need specialised training –Improve cooperation between NGI training groups and scientific groups 17
