training-week-2019

Materials for the 2019 incoming student training week. Trello. Slack.

Primary location: PG6 112

Breakout session location: AHC4

Before the Bootcamp

Make sure you complete the FIU Neuro Onboarding!

We also recommend that you at least start learning some programming with Codecademy. The free courses "Learn the Command Line", "Learn Python 2" (although we use Python 3), and "Learn git" are all extremely useful.
