Providing computing training to the next generation of physicists is the principal driver for a biannual multi-day training workshop hosted by the DUNE Computing Consortium. Materials are cast in a Software Carpentry’s template, and topics have included storage space, data management, LArSoft, grid job submission and monitoring. Moreover, experts provide extended breakout sessions to demonstrate the fundamentals of the unique software used in HEP analysis. Each session uses live documents for real time correspondence, and are captured on Zoom; afterwards, videos are embedded on the corresponding web-pages for review. As a GitHub repository, shared editing of the learning modules is straightforward, and provides a trusted framework to extend to other training topics in the future. An overview of the tutorials as well as the machinery used, along with survey statistics and lessons learned is presented.
