+This training will walk you through the development of a
+best-practices CWL workflow.  At the conclusion of this training, you
+should have a grasp of the essential components of a workflow, and
+have a basis for learning more.
+
+These lessons are based on [Introduction to RNA-seq using
+high-performance computing
+(HPC)](https://github.com/hbctraining/Intro-to-rnaseq-hpc-O2) lessons
+developed by members of the teaching team at the Harvard Chan
+Bioinformatics Core (HBC).  The original training, which includes
+additional lectures about the biology of RNA-seq, can be found at that
+link.
