This community discussion seeks to bring together the instructors and facilitators tasked with upskilling researchers and support staff. While this collective dialogue among instructors is not new, what is new is the traction that various groups are getting.
The newly formed group of eResearch support staff gathered by the Melbourne Data Analytics Platform (MDAP) and Sydney Informatics Hub (SIH) is one such group, as is the Lightweight Working Group (LWG): Researcher digital skills training data for enabling digital infrastructure use, spearheaded by University of Melbourne’s David Flanders during the pre-Skills Summit discussions.
In this session we seek to build on the momentum, by including a hands-on working session. Participants are asked to come with information to share and questions they seek to answer. During the first half of this session, attendees will populate a public document with shareable training details. The goal is to at least double the size of the new cross-institutional national training collection started by the LWG.
The second half of this session will be to ask questions to arrive at next steps. What do we need to do to continue building out this national training inventory and who will be in charge of maintaining and distributing the archive? What platforms exist and are used to capture training data and material and make it readily maintainable and findable? Can the material be reused and how do we recognise and capture re-use? Do we know about how to apply a license to our materials for appropriate reuse or do we need guidance?
While there will likely be more questions than these, one question has been answered. When can we move from talking to doing? That time is now.

In this 1 hr masterclass, Dr. Henry Lydecker and Dr. Gordon McDonald from the University of Sydney's Sydney Informatics Hub discuss:
- What ChatGPT is,
- A breif history of how we got here,
- Some ideas on how you can use it to accelerate your research
- Some pitfalls to beware of
- Some ethical/legal/moral and IP considerations for use of the tool.
Slides for the presentation are available [here](https://github.com/Sydney-Informatics-Hub/ChatGPT-Masterclass/blob/main/chatgpt_masterclass.pdf).

Presented by Dr. Henry Lydecker and Dr. Gordon McDonald of the Sydney Informatics Hub, on the 30th November 2023, as part of CSIRO's National AI Month.
Everyone is using ChatGPT these days, but how exactly can you get the most out of generative AI tools for your research?
In this Sydney Informatics Hub Masterclass we'll show you three killer ways you can take advantage of these new AI magic tricks so you can use them like a research wizard. We'll briefly overview the traps to avoid, and then show you a glimpse of the future where AI does the boring parts of your job for you!

The AMD profiling workshop covers the AMD suite of tools for development of HPC applications on AMD GPUs.
You will learn how to use the rocprof profiler and trace visualization tool that has long been available as part of the ROCm software suite.
You will also learn how to use the new Omnitools - Omnitrace and Omniperf - that were introduced at the end of 2022. Omnitrace is a powerful tracing profiler for both CPU and GPU. It can collect data from a much wider range of sources and includes hardware counters and sampling approaches. Omniperf is a performance analysis tool that can help you pinpoint how your application is performing with a visual view of the memory hierarchy on the GPU as well as reporting the percentage of peak for many different measurements.

Network Know-how and Data Handling Workshop
https://zenodo.org/record/6403757#.Yk-Gl8gza70
https://dresa.org.au/materials/network-know-how-and-data-handling-workshop
This workshop is a ‘train-the-trainer’ session that covers topics such as jargon busting, network literacy and data movement solutions. The workshop will also provide a peek at some collaborative research tools such as Jupyter Notebooks and CloudStor. You will learn about networks, integrated tools, data and storage and where all these things fit in the researcher’s toolkit.
This workshop is targeted at staff who would like to be more confident in giving advice to researchers about the options available to them. It is especially tailored for those with little to no technical knowledge and includes a hands-on component, using basic programming commands, but requires no previous knowledge of programming.
