[ASA] SciCoder Workshops for ECRs

[ASA Early Career Researcher Chapter]

Dear ASA members,

The ASA ECR Chapter is pleased to announce a series of SciCoder 
workshops -- "SciCoder: The Australian Tour presented by ASTRO 3D" -- 
across Australia, brought to you by ASTRO 3D and ADACS.The workshops are 
designed to introduce the early-career researcher to modern programming 
practices, languages, and tools as specifically applicable to scientific 
research. These skills will enable the participant to write better code, 
code faster, and leverage more tools than scientists are typically 
introduced to or aware of. An emphasis is placed on the rich variety of 
open source software available. The dates and locations for the 
workshops are:


1. Brisbane: Oct 15 - Oct 19
2. Perth: Oct 29 - Nov 2
3. Melbourne: Nov 19 - Nov 23
4. Sydney: Dec 3 - Dec 7


There will be a registration fee of ~$300 for attending the workshop. 
Registration for the workshop will open shortly but we would like you to 
pre-register your interest for attending the workshop via this form: 
https://www.surveymonkey.com/r/SciCoder-PreReg

Because there is a lot of logistics involved in organizing such a 
series, and the total number of spaces at each location is capped at 40, 
please pre-register as soon as possible - it will take less than a 
minute. Pre-registration will close on Friday, Aug 24.

We expect to have limited funds available to support a small number of 
attendees. If you anticipate requiring such support, please contact us 
immediately.

Please feel free to reach out the ECR Chapter Steering Committee if you 
have any questions.

Cheers,
ASA ECR Chapter Steering Committee
