Events
The events listed on the page includes seminars, lectures, discussion groups, and workshops. These are traditional didactic learning experiences that do not involve hands-on learning and application. These events do lay a foundation for applying knowledge in a hands-on manner, so please do not be discouraged if you still have questions after attending these events. It's all part of the learning process!
