[image: Galaxy Training Network] <https://wiki.galaxyproject.org/Teach> [image: Global Organisation for Bioinformatics Learning, Education & Training (GOBLET)] <http://mygoblet.org/> Hello all, *We are delighted to announce that the Galaxy Training Network (GTN) <https://wiki.galaxyproject.org/Teach/GTN> has officially joined the Global Organisation for Bioinformatics & Training (GOBLET) <http://mygoblet.org/>.* GTN is a network of people and groups that present Galaxy and Galaxy-based training around the world. GOBLET provides "a global, sustainable support and networking structure for bioinformatics educators/trainers and students/trainees (including a training portal for sharing materials, tools, tips and techniques; guidelines and best practice documents; facilities to help train the trainers; and offering different learning pathways for different types of learner)." GTN's GOBLET membership will raise the visibility of Galaxy, Galaxy training <https://wiki.galaxyproject.org/Teach/Resources>, and Galaxy Trainers <https://wiki.galaxyproject.org/Teach/Trainers> in the bioinformatics community, and help make the Galaxy Community aware of what GOBLET and its members have to offer. This membership was made possible by a unique arrangement where these five GTN members <https://wiki.galaxyproject.org/Teach/Trainers> each contributed 20% of the cost of a Bronze Organizational Membership: - Hans-Rudolf Hotz <https://wiki.galaxyproject.org/HansrudolfHotz>, Friedrich Miescher Institute (FMI) <http://www.fmi.ch/>, Switzerland - Björn Grüning <https://wiki.galaxyproject.org/BjoernGruening>, University of Freiburg <http://www.uni-freiburg.de/>, Germany - Mark Crowe <http://www.qfab.org/mark-crowe/>, QFAB <http://www.qfab.org/>, Australia - UC Davis Bioinformatics Core Training Program <http://training.bioinformatics.ucdavis.edu/>, United States - Galaxy Project <http://galaxyproject.org/>, United States Many thanks to these GTN members for making this happen, and to the GOBLET Executive for this opportunity. Dave Clements on behalf of the Galaxy Training Network <https://wiki.galaxyproject.org/Teach/Trainers> -- http://galaxyproject.org/ http://getgalaxy.org/ http://usegalaxy.org/ https://wiki.galaxyproject.org/

Re: [gxy-train] GTN membership in GOBLET?

Hi Dave, Bjorn My Goblet membership has just come due, so I'd be interested in being part of a GTN group membership. Do you have any idea how the login works at an organisational level though? Do we still all have our own usernames and are nominated members of the GTN membership? I can't find any details about that on the website.

GTN membership in GOBLET?
by Dave Clements 12 Jan '15

12 Jan '15

Hello all, I attended the annual GOBLET meeting in November. GOBLET ( http://mygoblet.org/) is a global organization focused on bioinformatics training. Their goals largely mirror (and predate) the goals of the Galaxy Training Network (GTN, https://wiki.galaxyproject.org/Teach) I was impressed with the group. I was about to submit my individual membership for 2015, and it occurred to me that by pooling individual memberships, we might be able to get an organizational membership for GTN. That is, if 5 of us were interested in joining, we might be able to pool those into a single Bronze membership. Individual memberships are €50/year and Bronze are €250. As an annual membership, we would need to find 5 people every year. A Bronze membership gets us a place for the GTN in GOBLET, and a vote in GOBLET issues (as an individual member I don't get a vote). It also raises the visibility of both GTN and GOBLET. This would only make sense if at least 5 of us, who aren't already organizational members, were interested in joining as individuals anyway. What do people think? Discussion and "yes I'm willing to contribute € to a pooled membership" emails are welcome. Thanks, Dave C -- http://galaxyproject.org/ http://getgalaxy.org/ http://usegalaxy.org/ https://wiki.galaxyproject.org/

GCC2015 Training Day Topic Nominations are Open through January 6
by Dave Clements 09 Dec '14

09 Dec '14

Hello all, I'd like to send a specific invitation to the Galaxy training community to nominate topics and yourself (and your friends!) as an instructor for the GCC2015 Training Day. We can't yet guarantee this for 2015, but I can say that instructors at the 3 previous GCC Training Days received full complementary registrations for all parts of the conference. The instructors and the content you present are what make the Training Days the successes they are. Please give this some thought. Thanks, Dave C ---------- Forwarded message ---------- From: Dave Clements <clements(a)galaxyproject.org> Date: Tue, Dec 9, 2014 at 10:36 PM Subject: GCC2015 Training Day Topic Nominations are Open through January 6 To: Galaxy Announcements List <galaxy-announce(a)lists.galaxyproject.org>, Galaxy Dev List <galaxy-dev(a)lists.galaxyproject.org> Cc: GCC2015 Organising Committee <gcc2015-org(a)lists.galaxyproject.org> Hello all, GCC2015 Training Day <http://gcc2015.tsl.ac.uk/training-day/> topics are nominated by you <http://bit.ly/gcc2015tdnom>, the Galaxy Community. Please take a few minutes to nominate a topic. Any topic of interest to the Galaxy Community can be nominated and you are encouraged to nominate more than one. If you are looking for ideas, see the topics nominated in 2013 <http://bit.ly/1i2j1gN> and 2014 <http://bit.ly/1s6NtMN>, and the Events <https://wiki.galaxyproject.org/Events> and the Events Archives <https://wiki.galaxyproject.org/Events/Archive> pages. Nominated topics will be published on the Training Day <http://gcc2015.tsl.ac.uk/training-day/> page as they come in. *Nominations close 6 January*. Topics will be compiled into a uniform list by the GCC2015 Organising Committee <http://gcc2015.tsl.ac.uk/organisers>, and topics will be voted on by the Galaxy Community 12-23 January. Topics will then be selected and scheduled based on topic interest, and the organisers' ability to confirm instructors for each session. Some very popular sessions may be scheduled more than once. The final schedule will be posted before registration opens. Cheers, GCC2015 Organising Committee <http://gcc2015.tsl.ac.uk/organisers> -- http://galaxyproject.org/ http://getgalaxy.org/ http://usegalaxy.org/ https://wiki.galaxyproject.org/
