Carpentries Instructor Training

About Carpentries Instructor Training

This training is designed for people who want to become certified Carpentries instructors. We recommend that you be familiar with at least one of the technologies that we teach (R, Python, the Unix bash shell, SQL, OpenRefine, spreadsheet software, and/or Git) before taking Instructor Training. This training will not teach any of those subjects, but will instead focus on developing skill and knowledge about evidence-based teaching practices and workshop procedures.

For more information about what will be covered at this training as well as a sample schedule, check out our Instructor Training Curriculum.

In addition to Instructor Training, certification as a Carpentries Instructor includes 3 short ‘checkout’ tasks. For more details, see our Checkout Instructions page.
