SCALE Training
Upcoming Training Courses
Training is provided by developers and expert users from the ORNL team. Courses provide a review of theory, description of capabilities and limitations of the software, and hands-on experience running problems of varying levels of complexity.
All attendees for the SCALE training courses must be licensed users of SCALE 6.3.1 which is available from ORNL/RSICC and the RIST/NUCIS in Japan.
Please request the software at least two months prior to the start of the training course.
Course Dates and Descriptions
The next training block will be held at Oak Ridge National Laboratory during October 2024. More information will be posted within the coming weeks.
