How to use this tutorial

This tutorial is designed for self-guided study and for in-person tutorial events. Recorded lectures introducing each topic are available on the relevant pages. In-person events will include live lectures, therefore it is not necessary to watch the recordings.

The material is organized in a way that is meant to follow a logical flow for learning the details of ATLAS analysis work. In-person tutorials may not follow this exact order due to scheduling constraints and other factors. This page is meant as a guide for which sections of the tutorial go together for a complete lesson.
