Schools

International and US students from across the CMS collaboration participate in a highly successful hands-on data analysis school, where eighty per cent of school time is devoted to a series of hands-on exercises, first introducing participants to the tools of data analysis and then later devoted to performing detailed physics measurements with real CMS data in a 2.5 day intensive period by focused teams of about 6-8 students.

Workshops

In conjunction with our sister organizations the LHC Physics Center at CERN, The Terascale Analysis Center at DESY, the ATLAS Analysis Center at Argonne, and CTEQ (The Coordinated Theoretical-Experimental Project on QCD) we conduct regular workshops that bring together experimentalists and theorists to discuss LHC and Tevatron data. In November 2010 more than 175 physicists came to the LPC for two days of lively presentations on benchmarks processes of the Standard Model.
