      2. Attend training and lab induction session

Once you have submitted your training request on PPMS, the Genomics Advanced Specialist will arrange a time with you for your training and induction session. At the end of the session, you will:

• Be familiar with PC1 guidelines and how the facility operates
• Be familiar with instrument booking, data management and safety policies
