Training Collections

This section contains curated collections of training modules called Side Quests that aim to provide a comprehensive learning experience around a particular theme or use case.

Prerequisites

Each collection has specific prerequisites documented on its index page. However, most collections assume:

  • Experience with the command line
  • Foundational Nextflow concepts and tooling covered in the Hello Nextflow beginner training course

For technical requirements and environment setup, see the Environment Setup mini-course.

Available collections

  • The Architect's Toolkit I - A collection of four Side Quests covering workflow architecture patterns for assembling complex pipelines, implementing testing strategies, managing metadata management, and grouping and splitting data. Estimated duration: 4 hours in group training.
  • Nextflow Triathlon - A fast-track introduction to the Nextflow ecosystem, combining the Nextflow Run and nf-core Run courses with a Side Quest on running pipelines with Seqera Platform. Estimated duration: 2.5 hours.

Suggesting new collections

We are actively working on developing additional Side Quests and Collections. Please feel free to suggest topics that you think would make sense to cover in a Collection by posting in the Training section of the community forum.
