AI Researchers, Educators, and those that support them are invited to attend one of two webinars with updated guidance on “Requesting Resources via the National AI Research Resource (NAIRR) Pilot”, taking place Monday, September 29, 4-5pm ET / 1-2pm PT and Thursday, October 9, 2-3pm ET / 11am-12pm PT. Presented by Lauren Michael and Timothy Middelkoop of Internet2 and CaRCC.
Registration is required to attend: September 29 or October 9.
Each webinar will present an overview of the process for requesting no-charge access to technology resources via the National AI Research Resources Pilot program. In addition to introducing the available, no-charge technology resources, the presentation prepares AI Researchers and Educators for the development of successful resource allocation requests by covering:
- Program eligibility and requirements for Classroom/Educator, Research, Startup and Deep Partnership projects
- The proposal review and resource allocation processes
- Specific proposal instructions and review criteria from the NAIRR Pilot portal
- Example resource estimates that quantitatively justify requested NAIRR Pilot resources
The presentations will be recorded, leaving designated time for unrecorded audience questions. Registrants will be notified when a recording and slides are available via the YouTube channels for the NAIRR Pilot and CaRCC.
Materials have been developed with input from NAIRR Pilot operational staff, CaRCC’s AI Facilitation Materials Working Group, and representatives from the National Science Foundation (NSF) with support from NSF award #2436057, though they do not necessarily reflect the views of the NSF.
Please share this registration information with Researchers and Educators who may be interested, as well as professionals who support their access to and use of technology resources for AI-relevant research and education activities.
