Webinar: Getting started on the new platforms

During May and June we’re all migrating to the new HPC platforms. In this webinar, we'll host a walk-through of how start working on the new resources.

We’ll show you:

  • how to log in
  • how to submit jobs
  • what’s changed
  • what’s the same
  • how to make the most of the new capabilities

Come along for a tour through the system and quick tips for getting started so you can hit the ground running.

We'll make sure there's plenty of time for questions!
