Or do open-source softwares generally put the onus on the user to learn programming techniques? Are the workshops generally offered for the masses or is there one-on-one training available? Does one "go to" R for programming training ... or do R workshops travel around the country? Thanks for your time. Darin Brooks Geomatics/GIS/Remote Sensing Coordinator Kim Forest Management Ltd.

The R Foundation doesn't offer any workshops, but there are lots of workshops and training sessions offered by various groups. For example, useR meetings (which occur about once a year, this year's was in Dortmund in August) generally include a number of tutorials. The Bioconductor project (www.bioconductor.org) offers a number of workshops each year. And there are commercial offerings (e.g. by XL Solutions, http://www.xlsolutions-corp.com/). Duncan Murdoch
