CodeRefinery is a project and collaboration network to help people improve their scientific software development skills. The training aspect of CodeRefinery focuses on teaching how to use state-of-the-art tools and practices for modern collaborative scientific software development. CodeRefinery’s training activities are provided both in the form of large online workshops, as well as in-person events.

Initially launched in 2016, the CodeRefinery project has now entered phase 4. PDC has been a partner in the project since its inception. At the end of May there was a two-day kick-off for phase 4 in Gothenburg. CodeRefinery is now a consortium of nine partner organisations across the Nordic countries with the project owner being the Nordic e-Infrastructure Collaboration (NeIC). The partners by country are as follows.

  • Finland: CSC - IT Center for Science and Aalto University

  • Norway: Norwegian University of Science and Technology (NTNU), Sigma2/Norwegian Research Infrastructure Services (NRIS) and the University of Oslo

  • Sweden: EuroCC National Competence Center Sweden (ENCCS) and the National Academic Infrastructure for Supercomputing in Sweden (NAISS)
