The two main goals of the user training and outreach component are: (1) provide user training to prepare biomedical researchers to apply NE-CAT technology to their research, and (2) engage in outreach activities to inform the scientific community about the technical capabilities of NE-CAT, promote and enable broader use of NE-CAT technologies, and actively recruit new user research projects to NE-CAT. User training includes online manuals and videos, which are regularly updated, one-on-one, in person training for on-site users, and videoconference-based training for remote users. We also provide enhanced training on all aspects of macromolecular crystallography from sample preparation to structure determination and refinement. We will develop a new system for tracking the training status of each user, enabling support staff to tailor their efforts more effectively. Our training activities extend to the larger user community through annual workshops. We will expand our training by offering a class on practical macromolecular crystallography to both the NE-CAT community and outside groups. NE-CAT maintains a website that is largely targeted to past and present users. We will expand the website to contain more information of interest to potential new users. NE-CAT freely distributes software such as RAPD, NE-CAT’s automated data collection and analysis software, and all hardware designs, many of which have been adopted by other APS beamlines. We will increase the diversity of our user community through a combination of outreach to new primary investigators and enhanced retention efforts for current primary investigators and postdoctoral scientists.

用户培训和外联部分的两个主要目标是：（1）提供用户培训， 生物医学研究人员将NE-CAT技术应用于他们的研究，以及（2）参与外展活动 向科学界通报NE-CAT的技术能力，促进和扩大 使用NE-CAT技术，并积极为NE-CAT招募新的用户研究项目。 包括在线手册和视频，定期更新，一对一，现场培训 为远程用户提供视频会议培训。我们还为所有人提供强化培训 从样品制备到结构测定的大分子晶体学方面， 精致。我们将开发一个新的系统，用于跟踪每个用户的培训状态， 工作人员更有效地调整他们的工作。我们的培训活动扩展到更大的用户社区 通过年度研讨会。我们将通过开设实用大分子课程来扩大培训 晶体学的NE-CAT社区和外部群体。NE-CAT维护一个网站， 主要针对过去和现在的用户。我们将扩大网站， 吸引潜在的新用户。NE-CAT免费发布软件，如RAPD，NE-CAT的自动化 数据采集和分析软件，以及所有硬件设计，其中许多已被其他 APS光束线。我们将增加我们的用户社区的多样性，通过结合推广， 新的主要研究者和加强现有主要研究者和博士后的保留工作 科学家
