DETAILS:

WORKSHOP TOPIC LISTS ARE BELOW!

There's NO PREREQUISITE for EITHER of these workshops!

(Participation in any previous Virtual Residency workshop
is ***NOT*** REQUIRED.)

(1) For the Research Computing Facilitation workshop:

Does your institution have lots of researchers and educators
who want to use advanced computing, but need some help
learning how?

You or someone at your institution can learn to be
more effective at helping researchers and educators
use research computing!

This is a great way to start, get better at, a career in
helping researchers use research computing.

It's also a great way to meet a community of fellow
research computing facilitators.

(2) For the Becoming an Institution Research Computing Leader
workshop:

Are you ready to move up as a Research Computing professional?
Have you been considering how to get to the next level?

Join us to learn key skills for institutional research computing
leadership!

The Virtual Residency Program has already served
1700+ people from 500+ institutions in all 50 US states and
4 US territories plus 19 other countries on 6 continents,
including:

* 63 Minority Serving Institutions (13% of VRP institutions,
21% of 4+ year MSIs, 13% of all MSIs);

* 129 non-PhD-granting institutions, including 4 community colleges
and 3 high schools (26% of VRP institutions);

* 129 institutions in all 28 EPSCoR jurisdictions
(26% of VRP institutions);

* 288 of 362 Campus Champion institutions
(59% of VRP institutions, 80% of Campus Champion institutions).

And, 78% of VRP institutions have had participants
who collectively have participated in VRP activities
multiple times, and 67% of VRP institutions have had
participants who collectively have participated in
multiple types of VRP activities.

Clarifying, since this question has come up in the past:

You *DON'T* have to participated in ANY past Virtual Residency
event (including this year's workshop planning calls),
NOR in Campus Champions NOR Campus Research Computing Consortium
(CaRCC) efforts, in order to participate in the
2025 Virtual Residency workshop -- though of course everyone in
those groups are encouraged to participate!
