The ASA (Astronomical Society of Australia) Early Career Researcher Chapter Steering Committee organised a virtual "How To" series, answering some of the most pressing questions from our community.
The series was run as live streamed events each Wednesday starting in Feb 2022, and running through to mid March. The "How To" series website can be found here and a recording of the event can be found on YouTube.

Most ECRs do not receive any formal training in critical software engineering skills. The ASA (Astronomical Society of Australia) collaborated with ADACS to run an intensive workshop to address this knowledge gap.
A three day workshop aimed at researchers without formal coding/software development training and designed to give people a taste of many different aspects of best practices in scientific computing.
ADACS developed four short courses for the 2022 HWSA (Harley Wood School for Astronomy) that focused on developing skills for computing and careers, while the dark matter theme was covered off by astronomy experts.
