Hope you have a great Christmas!

Hi everyone
As you know, we are closed to users from today, and we will reopen on
Friday 3rd January. The remote desktop will be under maintenance until
Wednesday, and so there will be intermittent access to the system during
this period; we will send out an announcement once it is fully available
again.
*YNiC User Inductions*
If you are aware of any new students/staff that will require access to YNiC
and/or an IT account, they must attend a YNiC user induction. Our next
induction will be *Wednesday 8th January at 10am*. Please ask them to
contact support(a)ynic.york.ac.uk to sign up.
*Level 0 operator training:*
Our next scheduled Level 0 training session will take place on *Tuesday 7th
January at 1pm*. Please note that users requesting Level 0 training should
be a PhD, RA/Postdoc, or staff, and should already have a project proposal
submitted to YNiC. Please email support(a)ynic.york.ac.uk if you have any
questions or wish to book on to this session, and include which scanner you
wish to be trained on. *Please note that sessions are limited to 4
trainees, which will be allocated on a first-come first-served basis.
Training must be booked at least a week before the session date, in order
to reserve the scanner booking.*
*First Aid Training Requirement for Operators*
All Level 0 operators must attend an 'Emergency First Aid at Work' one-day
training course. We will enforce this requirement from March 2020, to give
current Level 0 users time to arrange the training course. Courses should
be organised by the project PI with a relevant training provider (e.g. St
Johns Ambulance, Red Cross); these providers can also run group training
sessions (8 or more people) on-site, so labs may wish to coordinate their
operators to all attend training on the same day, at a location of your
choice.
Hope you all have a lovely Christmas break. See you in the New Year!
Kind regards
Lauren

Hi everyone
We have a few reminders for you this week:
*YNiC Christmas Closure*
YNiC will be closed to users for service maintenance *from the week
commencing 16th December*, and will re-open in the New Year, on the 3rd of
January. During this period you should consider all YNiC services
unavailable. However, please note that we do not anticipate the remote
desktop to be unavailable for the entire period, and we will keep users
updated once these services resume.
*YNiC User Inductions*
If you are aware of any new students/staff that will require access to YNiC
and/or an IT account, they must attend a YNiC user induction. Our final
induction date before the Christmas break will be Wednesday 11th December
at 2pm. Please ask them to contact support(a)ynic.york.ac.uk to sign up.
*First Aid Training Requirement for Operators*
It is recommended that all Level 0 operators attend an 'Emergency First Aid
at Work' one-day training course. This is currently a requirement for Level
1 operators, and will also be required for Level 0 operators soon - we will
enforce this requirement from March 2020, to give current Level 0 users
time to arrange the training course. Courses should be organised by the
project PI with a relevant training provider (e.g. St Johns Ambulance, Red
Cross); these providers can also run group training sessions (8 or more
people) on-site, so labs may wish to coordinate their operators to all
attend training on the same day, at a location of your choice.
Hope you have a great week!

Hello All,
A little clarification on the closure details. We are closing the WC 1th
December to perform some upgrades. We do not anticipate them taking the
whole week and will update users when remote services will be available
again. Apologies for any confusion.
Best wishes
Tony
