Attending the Training School

Physical attendance

The training school on Data and Annotation will take place from 7 to 9 June 2022 and be hosted by the Institute of Formal and Applied Linguistics of the Faculty of Mathematics and PhysicsCharles University in Prague, Czech Republic. The faculty has kindly reserved a computer lab for a maximum of 25 participants.

As CLS INFRA, the organization of the Prague Training School, cannot be held responsible for reimbursements, we ask you to be cautious in (definitively) booking your travel and stay to attend the training school. We act on a first come, first serve basis and will be in touch by e-mail to confirm your placement and mode of attendance before the event.

The maximum number of physical participants can be adjusted according to the Czech Republic government’s COVID-19 guidelines in effect at the time of the training school. As needed, appropriate social distancing will be maintained.

We advise you to read the sign-up form carefully and to read more about attendance recommendations in our FAQs.

When signing up for the training school, you give permission to being recorded.

The venue is the Jesuit College of Prague’s picturesque St. Nicholas’s Church. It is adjacent to the monumental Malostranské náměstí, the main square of Prague’s Lesser Town, which is one of the city’s most historic neighborhoods. The square features a mixture of ancient town houses and baroque palaces – an ideal starting point to explore the city of Prague while visiting for the training school.

Daily workshops will take place from 9am-5pm local time (CEST), with time for lunch between 12:15-1:30pm.

Lunch on all three training days is included, free of charge. There is going to be a buffet meal consisting of three warm dishes, one vegetarian and one gluten free, a salad bar and a selection of cold snacks.

Hybrid attendance

Our teachers are committed to providing you with an optimal learning experience, regardless of mode of attendance! The computer lab at the Institute of Formal and Applied Linguistics is outfitted for hybrid teaching to make sure that both plenary sessions and workshop assignments can be followed on-line. Most of all, group size will remain limited so there is plenty of individual supervision.

Hybrid attendance will take place over Zoom and be bound to the same schedule as the physical training school. During the training school, moreover, the DARIAH Campus Platform will act as a point of reference where training materials will be hosted, and recordings of the plenary sessions will be made public post-event.
