Yesterday @calexander_91 and I presented an overview of our Using Git course, developed with a team in @UofGMaths_Stats. It seemed to be a success, so excited to role it out in our own school early in the New Year. @UofGlasgow people, please reach out if this is useful for you!
Replying to @GSDSglasgow
@GeoDSGlasgow team is having a couple of days of training. From the intro to #GitHub, #Docker to familiarising with the #research funding landscape & social media presence... I am missing today's sessions -except social event! but prepare to be amazed by my tweets from tmr ;)
