-To operate our equipments you must attend the 2 hour session on the Principles of Flow Cytometry. If you haven’t already, please [[TrainingPrinciplesFlow|book your Session]].
+**How to become a power user**
+We provide training in cell sorting to researchers falling into one of the following categories:
+  * Projects involving a lot of cell sorts (1-2 x per week) for at least a couple of months.
+  * Users who often need to sort outside of service hours (e.g. unexpected patient samples, which have to be processed immediately).
+  * Technicians from research groups who are willing to handle all sorts of the whole research group.
+All requests for cell sorter training have to be approved by the facility head.
+**Prerequisite for sorter training**
+We expect that you are able to operate an analyzer (BD LSR Fortessa  or BD  LSR Fortessa X-20) independently. We observed that users without practical experience in FACS Diva software have massive difficulties during the first training sessions. If you were trained on a different instrument, we highly recommend using one of our analyzers to make yourself familiar with this software before the start of the sorter training.
+**Training**
+To operate our equipments you must attend the 2,5 hour session on the Principles of Flow Cytometry. If you haven’t already, please [[TrainingPrinciplesFlow|book your Session]].
 Training to self-operate the sorters requires attending a __second theoretical session on the Principles of Cell Sorting.__
