The Teaching and Learning Cluster (TALC) is a computing resource provided by Information Technologies Research Computing Services (RCS) in support of approved courses and workshops. Usage of the cluster is subject to certain conditions as outlined below and detailed on this page.

Guidelines and Regulations

Municipal, Provincial and Federal laws and University Policies and Procedures must not be violated using RCS resources.

If you have not done so, please read the University's policy on "Acceptable Use of Electronic Resources and Information" found here: https://www.ucalgary.ca/policies/files/policies/acceptable-use-of-electronic-resources-and-information-policy.pdf

This account is for your use only. It is made available to you specifically for the course that requires the use of TALC. You must not share your password or let anyone use your account.

Commercial use of TALC, including digital currency mining, is strictly prohibited.

TALC is configured for Level 1 and Level 2 data as set forth in the University of Calgary Information Security Classification Standard. Information on the University of Calgary Information Security Classification Standards can be found here: https://www.ucalgary.ca/policies/files/policies/im010-03-security-standard_0.pdf


TALC is not suitable for Level 3 and Level 4 data (such as personally identifiable medical information).

RCS reserves the right to examine files, programs and any other material used on RCS systems at any time without warning.

Evidence of inappropriate use of TALC may result in immediate loss of access to your TALC account. Pending further investigation, some offenses may result in further actions taken.

Please note that no backups are performed for data stored on TALC. It is your responsibility to copy data you need to save elsewhere. By default, your account and data will be deleted one week after the last course associated with the account has finished.

Please write to support@hpc.ucalgary.ca with your questions and concerns.
