+{{::ucourse.png?70|}} **μCourse** - To use our equipment you need to attend a 2h introductory session on the Principles of Microscopy. [[https://forms.office.com/pages/responsepage.aspx?id=OZ2DCeYgXUCMCNvF4as7OwAcCvfNUQdGl-1StUi6OCFUOERNRENHWlJIVTI1VDBCTFg5RlJDQ1BSUCQlQCN0PWcu&route=shorturl|Book a session]]
-====== Getting trained on a microscope ======
+{{::assisted_acquisition.png?70|}} **Assisted Acquisition** - For occasional usage we will assist you with data acquisition, no training required.
-{{training_steps.png|}}
+**If you use a microscope regularly, we can train you to become fully independent:**
-  * Training is __mandatory__, even if you have already used the microscope elsewhere.
+{{::training.png?70|}} **Training** is __mandatory__ for independent use, even if you have already used the microscope elsewhere.
-  * The [[about|Bioimaging Unit]] will contact you as soon as possible upon any access request to schedule a training session.
-  * After training you will be able to use the **[[https://imm.medicina.ulisboa.pt/intranet/booking|booking system]]** to reserve some time on the microscope.
+{{::independence.png?70|}} **Independence** - After training, you will be given regular user privileges.
-  * You **must** request assistance for your first reserved time
-  * After you are a fully independent user, you can request technical assistance whenever necessary (e.g. for troubleshooting, new settings, etc.).
+{{::image_analysis.png?70|}} **Image Analysis** - We can help you analyze your data more efficiently, check our [[microscopytools|image analysis and processing tools]].
+{{::publication.png?70|}} **Publication** - We can also help you writing materials and methods and preparing figures for a manuscript with microscopy data.
+{{:arrow.png?15|}} **Training Workflow**
+  - <fc #ffd966>First training session:</fc> we book, your sample ready to image – no data acquired
+  - <fc #ffd966>Second training session:</fc> we book, your sample ready to image
+  - <fc #ffd966>Third(+) training session:</fc> you book, no longer than 1 week after first training
+{{:arrow.png?15|}} **Please Note**
+  * After you are a fully independent user, you can request technical assistance when necessary (e.g. for troubleshooting, new settings, etc.)
+  * If you do not use a microscope for more than 3 months, assistance is mandatory in your next session
+  * If you do not use a microscope for more than 6 months, you lose access to the system and consulting is mandatory
+  * We are always available for consulting and advice on all things related to microscopy. Feel free to [[bioimaging@gimm.pt|contact us]] (☎ 47305 in Lisbon, 4533 in Oeiras), we will gladly help you with your microscopy needs and discuss your ideas.
