SUMMARY:Building Expertise, Connections, and Communities for AI and HPC Tr
 aining and Education: NAIRR Pilot User Experience Group Initiatives
DESCRIPTION:Nitin Sukhija (Slippery Rock University of Pennsylvania), Shel
 ley Knuth and Alana Romanella (University of Colorado Boulder), and Marisa
  Brazil (Arizona State University)\n\nGiven the rapidly changing computing
  landscape propelled with innovations and convergence of new cutting-edge 
 technologies such as HPC, AI, Cybersecurity, Quantum computing and more, t
 he accelerated need for upskilling/reskilling the workforce to mitigate sk
 ills gaps is becoming increasingly important.  Furthermore, a triumvirate 
 of user expertise, connections, and communities is required to enable effi
 cient integration of (HPC) and AI ecosystems. To address the challenges in
 volved in leveraging AI, the National Artificial Intelligence Research Res
 ource (NAIRR) Pilot was launched in 2024. As part of this effort, the NAIR
 R Pilot User Experience Working Group (UEWG) have conducted various engage
 ment initiates, such as researcher showcases, pilot industry partner showc
 ases, webinar series, regional and national workshops. This paper presents
  a reproducible instructional roadmap based on the observations and result
 s of the above-mentioned training and education efforts that can be used t
 o efficiently train the next generation workforce in AI and HPC at all lev
 els.\n\nTag: Education & Workforce Development\n\nRecording: Livestreamed,
