Hi Greta,
If you are not familiar with GC I would suggest:
1) Talking with the instrument supplier.
2) Setting up the lab ready for installation as per their requirements.
2) Getting them to set the instrument up for you and showing you the basics.
3) Going on a course with the instrument supplier.
Regards
WK
