Training in quantum computing

These trainings aim to provide a solid introduction to the basic concepts of quantum computing. Specific training plans can be adapted to your needs, so feel free to contact us.

Short trainings

These three short courses are ideal for a first introduction to quantum computing. They can be completed during a lunch break or throughout the day. It is also possible to combine all three courses into a full-day session.

1. Experiments at the origin of quantum computing

This training introduces major historical experiments that reveal quantum mechanical phenomena. The simplified presentation serves as a gateway to understanding the postulates of quantum mechanics, which form the foundation of quantum computing.

  • Historical perspective (wave and particle phenomena).
  • Simplified presentation of key experiments: Young’s double-slit experiment and the photoelectric effect.
  • Illustration of the postulates of quantum mechanics.
  • Connection between the postulates and quantum computing.
  • Prerequisites: Basic knowledge of computer science (binary logic)
  • Duration: 1h30 of training and 30 minutes for questions/discussions
Young double-slit experiments with corpuscules
State amplitude visualization with Grover's algorithm initialization, oracle application and amplitude amplification steps

2. Platforms, applications, and ecosystem

This training offers a simplified introduction to how a quantum computer works, presents two popular quantum algorithms, and explores the main application areas of quantum computing.

  • Simplified explanation of how a quantum computer works (atoms and energy levels, harmonic oscillator).
  • Overview of two well-known algorithms (Shor’s and Grover’s algorithms).
  • Applications of quantum computing.
  • Introduction to physical platforms (example: superconducting qubits).
  • Current limitations of quantum computers.
  • Prerequisites: Basic knowledge of computer science (binary logic)
  • Duration: 1h30 of training and 30 minutes for questions/discussions

3. Program your first quantum circuits

This training is delivered with hands-on practical exercises. A Google account and internet connection are required. The objective is to design and run your first quantum circuits. The goals are:

  • Understand what a quantum state is.
  • Build and manipulate your first quantum circuits.
  • Learn how basic quantum gates work.
  • Understand the phenomenon of entanglement using Bell states.
  • Create your first quantum adder.
  • Prerequisites: Basic knowledge of computer science (binary logic) and basic experience with Python programming language.
  • Duration: 45 minutes of training, 2h30 of hands-on practice, and 15–30 minutes for correction/questions/discussions
