[Corpora-List] Boot camp for corpus linguistics?

[Harden, Karon M]

I second this question. I've been reading: Corpus-Based Language Studies: An Advanced Resource Book <http://www.amazon.com/Corpus-Based-Language-Studies-Routledge-Linguistics/dp/0415286239/ref=sr_1_1?ie=UTF8&s=books&qid=1209477788&sr=8-1> by Anthony McEnery and found it helpful, but I would also like other suggestions.

I would like to also ask if anyone knows of any university courses in corpus linguistics offered online for distance students??

Thank you,

Subject: [Corpora-List] Boot camp for corpus linguistics?

Although I have a strong background in computer science and pretty good background in linguistics, statistical methods, machine learning, etc., I am new to the field of corpus linguistics. Are there any kind of summer institutes for introducing newbies to this field? Also, can anyone recommend a good introductory book to this field and a site which gives an annotated list of all the tools available in this field? Thanks in advance.
