SUMMARY:International HPC Certification Program
DESCRIPTION:Birds of a Feather\nEducation, Tech Program Reg Pass, Exhibits
  Reg Pass, Exhibits - Exhibit Hall Only Reg Pass\n\nInternational HPC Cert
 ification Program\n\nKunkel, Filinger, Acquaviva\n\nThere is a generally a
 ccepted set of skills and competencies necessary to efficiently use HPC re
 sources. Making clear what skills are required or recommended for a compet
 ent HPC user would benefit both the HPC service providers and practitioner
 s. This BoF will present the status of the recently founded International 
 HPC Certification Forum aiming to  categorize, define, and examine these s
 kills to create an ecosystem. To ensure this is an independent community-w
 ide effort, we invite anyone interested in HPC teaching/ training to parti
 cipate in the discussion and get involved. Inputs from academia, industry 
 and HPC centers will steer the future effort.
