Participants of the workshop, primarily students and postdocs, attended a variety of presentations and hands-on work to get familiarized not only with the aspects of the physics of solar energetic particles (SEPs) but also and in particular with the available data sets and software tools to analyse SEP events.

The workshop was organized on 5–9 September, the sessions starting in the morning of the 6^th and ending at lunch time on the 9^th. The first two to three days of the meeting concentrated mainly on the tutorial sessions on SEP events and the tools for their analysis developed in the project. The remainder of the meeting concentrated on the first scientific results of the SERPENTINE project. Social programme consisted of a welcome reception in the evening of 5^th and a barbecue at the University campus on 7^th.
