LOFAR-UK is organising a LOFAR data school, which will take place from 30 August-1 September 2011 at the Jodrell Bank Centre for Astrophysics, located in the Alan Turing Building, University of Manchester.

The aim of the data school is to introduce interested astronomers to the techniques that are needed to interact successfully with LOFAR data, especially those from long baselines. Due to venue capacity, numbers will be limited to 25, on a first-come, first-served basis. Registration is free for participants from any LOFAR-UK institution; for others a small charge of 50 pounds will be made for provision of coffee/tea and lunches during the meeting.
