Berlich, R., Hardt, M., Kunze, M., Atkinson, M. and Fergusson, D.

As the largest EU Grid project, it is one of the Enabling Grids for E-SciencE initiatives foremost goals to establish a production quality Grid infrastructure. Amongst EGEE's diverse duties the creation of a pan- European Grid training organisation plays a prominent role. Close to the end of the first project phase, this paper describes the training organisation in the context of EGEE's other duties, discusses the experiences made in building it, lists results and lessons learned over the course of almost two years of training provision. It is the purpose of this paper to allow upcoming Grid initiatives to leverage the experiences made in EGEE training.
