Host a Workshop

There are two ways to host a workshop at The Carpentries: Centrally-Organised and Self-Organised.

A Centrally-Organised workshop is an integrative approach to planning a Carpentries event. Collaborate with the Carpentries Workshops and Instruction Team (WIT) to organise your workshop and a member of WIT will do the work to prepare your team for an exceptional workshop experience. Preparation from WIT includes recruitment of certified Instructors, setting up and providing access to Eventbrite for learner registration, arranging a virtual meeting space for online workshops when needed, and a wealth of resources and information to ensure a successful workshop. Centrally-Organised workshops come with an administrative fee, which you can learn more about on our pricing page. With the assistance of WIT and your Instructors, a Centrally-Organised workshop is a great way to meet all of your workshop needs!

Pre-Workshop Questions

When planning a workshop, how closely does the workshop have to stick to the Carpentries lesson plans?

Centrally-Organised workshops must teach the Core Curriculum of a lesson plan. Visit our Curricula Overview page to learn more about what we have to offer!

Should the Instructor or a member of the host institution be listed as the contact person on the workshop webpage?

The contact person for the workshop webpage can be designated by the workshop organiser. The person listed should be knowledgeable about the workshop so they can answer questions regarding the workshop such as attendance policy, waitlist, location, installation, etc. You can have multiple persons listed as the contact person if needed.

Where do I find the pre/post survey for the learners to use?

The learner facing survey links are automatically generated on the workshop’s webpage. Generally, they will be located directly above and within the schedule. You are welcome to share the survey links (located on the workshop webpage) with your attendees whenever the time is right for your workshop.

How do I access the survey results?

If you are planning a workshop, please notify the Workshops and Instruction Team of your planned workshop using the workshop request form. The Workshops and Instruction Team will send the link to view results of the survey one to two weeks prior to the workshop. If there are more than 10 survey responses, you will have the option to download the survey data, using the “Download CSV” link at the bottom right of the survey results page.
