Great discussions at the first International Research Software Conference! We presented lessons learned from our large online workshops, and were encouraged by the interest in co-teaching and collaboration on future developments. Thanks to everyone who organized and participated the session!

Running a workshop involves more than lesson content. CodeRefinery provides practical manuals for organizers, instructors, helpers, and hosts; everything from planning and comms to roles and logistics. Learn from what we've refined over years of workshops: -> coderefinery.github.io/manuals/

Great to meet fellow CodeRefinery and NeIC folks at #NeICAHM2025 in Tallinn! We discussed cross-project strategy, training, outreach, CodeRefinery connection to the broader #RSEng training ecosystem. Exciting plans and ideas ahead for collaborations in the Nordics and beyond! 🚀
