Register now! Training in Quantum Computing
CQIQC is hosting free workshops for students, postdoctoral fellows and faculty at the University of Toronto who has an interest in current software tools for quantum computing. See below for details.
Educational quantum computer programming tools for today and the future
Audience Faculty and Postdoctoral Fellows at the University of Toronto
Requirements None. You do not need to bring your laptop.
Date 2 May 2022 3pm - 4pm (the workshop will start at 3pm sharp)
Location Room MP1115, Department of Physics, University of Toronto
Presenter Catalina Albornoz Anzola, Quantum Community Manager, Xanadu Inc.
Registration is required. Please register here.
Abstract
The workshop will present Xanadu’s latest interactive education tools for quantum computing and discuss how these educational programming tools can be incorporated into a quantum computing course curriculum. We will follow up with an open discussion on quantum computing education for today and the future from the academic and industry perspective.
The workshop is suitable for anyone interested in embedding quantum computing into their teaching.
You do not need to bring your laptop to the workshop.
The workshop is offered in collaboration with Xanadu Inc., a Toronto-based quantum computing company.

Open-source interactive tools for Quantum Computing: An introduction to PennyLane and The Quantum Codebook
Audience Undergraduate and graduate students at the University of Toronto
Requirements Basic knowledge in quantum mechanics, linear algebra and programming is recommended. You do not need to bring your laptop.
Date 22 March 2022 12:10pm - 1 pm
Location Room MP137, Department of Physics, University of Toronto

Abstract
PennyLane is an open-source software framework for quantum machine learning, quantum chemistry, and quantum computing built around the concept of quantum differentiable programming. It gives users the power to train quantum computers the same way as neural networks.
The Xanadu Quantum Codebook is an exercise-based online platform for learning quantum computing with PennyLane. It covers both introductory and advanced topics. Rather than just reading a textbook or tutorial, the Codebook is an active learning resource in which you will learn by doing.
The workshop is offered in collaboration with Xanadu Inc., a Toronto-based quantum computing company.
