> In preparation for the upcoming ALMA call for Cycle 2 proposals we are planning a 2-day ALMA workshop for the Australian community. The workshop will include presentations from ALMA staff related to ALMA's Cycle 2 capabilities and proposal preparation, as well as hands-on tutorials demonstrating the ALMA Observing Tool and the Simulators.  The talks and tutorials are aimed to enable novice and advanced users alike to create observing projects making full use of the unique capabilities of ALMA in Cycle 2. Our aim is to also include a series of science talks that highlight both early science results from ALMA and future science projects.
