  The CERN Geant4 team in collaboration with the Technical Training
  team at CERN, will undertake a five half-days (afternoons) hands-on
  course "First steps with Geant4" (in presence and virtually on Zoom)
  on May 19-23, 2025.

    https://indico.cern.ch/e/geant4_beginners_course_2025

  The course will be hands-on. It was designed, created and will be
  delivered by Mihaly Novak, who taught it and has been refining it
  over the past five years.

  The course will cover Geant4 basics for creating applications in any
  domain, but with extra emphasis on topics most relevant to experiments
  in High Energy or Nuclear Physics. Exercises will be based on Geant4
  version 11.3.

  Lectures will cover all aspects of Geant4 from the basic building
  blocks of Geant4 through intermediate topics, interspersed with
  examples that build a progressively more complex application
  extensible to real use.

  The course is expected to be of interest to novices and those with
  basic or partial familiarity with Geant4. Participants are expected
  to have a reasonable knowledge of C++. A follow-up course is planned
  in fall with intermediate / advanced topics.

  Participation in person is recommended, but the remote option is also
  available. The cost to attend the course in person is 75 CHF for
  students and 100 CHF for others; for those who are not able to join
  in person is at the reduced cost of 25 CHF (students) or 50 CHF for
  those employed. A discount (or waiver) for those with limited means,
  between studies/jobs or from developing countries is available.
  Registration is required in all cases.

  Best Regards,
    Gabriele Cosmo
