Abstract: Practical implementation of newly learned content is known to significantly increase the knowledge retention rate and depth of understanding. To accelerate the onboarding process of new users onto the HPC systems at the Jülich Supercomputing Centre (JSC), extensive hands-on material was developed. We present the content structure and technical implementation of the hands-on component integrated into the "Introduction to Supercomputing at JSC – Theory & Practice" course offered twice a year, online at JSC. Since 2024 the hands-on material is also shared open-source on the JSC training websites for asynchronous learning. This paper serves to share the hands-on curriculum and it’s practical implementation at JSC with the training & education community in HPC, and to provide our expertise and material to other HPC centres who are interested in adding or amending hands-on components of their training courses.
