About our Training Offers

We provide crash courses, schools and continuing education programs for researchers, staff and externals.

Hundreds of Training Courses - Thousands of Participants

Since 2017 we have been giving hundreds of crash courses on topics from Introduction to Python Programming, LaTex, GPU Programming, Licensing to Advanced Machine Learning and Ethics. More than a thousand researchers from the University of Bern have attended these offers.

Always Hybrid

All our courses are always given in hybrid mode, i.e. they are taught in-situ (classroom) with online transmission for remote participation.

Internal and External Coaches

We use internal and external coaches with long experience from research or work on the topics. 

Registration

It happens via the eLearning platform ILIAS (direct links in the course lists), which requires login with your campus or AAI account to register. People without these accounts need to write us an email. Registered participants will receive further information by email.

Format and Fees

Training sessions are in the format from half day crash courses to weekly block courses and teach practical skills to boost the research or work of the participants. All sessions require your own laptops and in some cases your own research code and tools. If nothing else is indicated, courses are for free. Courses are normally given for at least 10 and at the most 24 participants on a first come first served principle. We repeat popular trainings on demand.

Custom Training

We also help with organising or developing discipline specific trainings, courses or workshops for your group, project or study program if you can provide the required funds for it.
