We are happy to provide comprehensive [[Tutorials|online documentation]] and support through [[http://neuroimage.usc.edu/forums|our forum]] but there is nothing better than a course to make your learning curve steeper.<<BR>> | {{attachment:brainstorm_training.png||width="150px",align="right"}} The best way to learn how to use Brainstorm, like any other academic software, is to benefit from local experts.

| == Upcoming Brainstorm courses == All courses feature intensive hands-on practice of Brainstorm. Attendees bring their own laptops and go through most software features in a step-by-step, interactive way, with the assistance of at least two Brainstorm experts. No Matlab license required, runs on all operating systems! Our philosophy is to offer a personal first experience with using Brainstorm, that attendees will be able to keep alive on their laptops and share when back to their home institution.
