The Workshops and Seminars coordinated by Network and Academic Computing Services (NACS) are open to all UCI Faculty, TA's, Graduate Students and Staff. Some workshops are free while others are outsourced through private training companies and require payment by the home departments. NACS is part of a collaborative partnership that comprises The Electronic Educational Environment (EEE), through which training is also offered.
