Access to event-specific resources can depend on participation, the event stage, and the project. For preparation and hands-on model adaptation, start with [Training Apertus](/learning-and-resources/training-apertus.md), which brings together the Kaggle SFT notebook, the text-focused Apertus checkpoint, baseline evaluation guidance, and current tooling notes. If a course, project, or Hack Apertus allocation includes CSCS compute, use [CSCS Clariden](/external-tools-and-services/cscs-clariden.md) separately for SSH access, Slurm validation, GPU testing, uenv, and the ML Console. ## MAKEathon @ FHNW [MAKEathon @ FHNW](https://makeathonfhnw.ch/) is an annual two-day event at FHNW where students, engineers, designers, and developers build AI prototypes around real company and societal challenges. ## watsonx Agentic AI Challenge Switzerland The [watsonx Agentic AI Challenge Switzerland](https://ch.linkedin.com/company/watsonx-agentic-ai-challenge-switzerland) is an annual student challenge that brings Swiss universities and industry partners together to develop agentic AI solutions for real-world use cases. {% hint style="info" %} Participation, eligibility, schedules, and access to event resources are defined by the respective organizers and may change from year to year. {% endhint %} --- # Agent Instructions This documentation is published with GitBook. GitBook is the documentation platform designed so that both humans and AI agents can read, navigate, and reason over technical content effectively. Learn more at gitbook.com. ## Querying This Documentation If you need additional information that is not directly available in this page, you can query the documentation by asking a question. Perform an HTTP GET request on the following URL with the `ask` and `goal` query parameters: ``` GET https://docs.aisl.science/events-and-community.md?ask=&goal= ``` `ask` is the immediate question: it should be specific, self-contained, and written in natural language. `goal` is what the user is ultimately trying to achieve, the reason they need the answer. Sharing it helps GitBook give you a better, more relevant answer. A goal is most helpful when it describes the outcome the user wants rather than restating the question. For example, with `ask=how do I create an API token`, a goal like `automate deployments from our CI pipeline` lets GitBook tailor the answer to that use case. The response will contain a direct answer to the question and relevant excerpts and sources from the documentation. Use this mechanism when the answer is not explicitly present in the current page, you need clarification or additional context, or you want to retrieve related documentation sections.
