+
+**Description**: Join us for an immersive workshop on **Deep Reinforcement Learning** (DRL), a cutting-edge approach for solving complex decision-making problems that is revolutionizing artificial intelligence. This workshop and repository will provide participants with a comprehensive understanding of the fundamental concepts, techniques, and applications of Deep RL.
+
+We will cover the following set of topics:
+
+1. Reinforcement Learning Framework
+    - Types of Tasks
+    - Exploration and Exploitation
+    - 2 Main Approaches for solving problems with RL
+2. From Q-Learning to Deep Q-Learning
+    - Q-Learning Algorithm
+    - Q-Learning Example
+    - Deep Q-Network (DQN)
+    - Deep Q Algorithm
+    - Deep Q-Network Example
+3. Beyond Deep Q-Learning
+    - Overview of popular Deep RL algorithms
+    - Successful (and un-successful) Applications of Deep RL
+    - Open problems in Deep RL Research
+
+<!-- 
+    Mandatory Sections:
+        - File Directory Structure
+        - Workshop Recording
+            - if you recorded your workshop, please make it available here
+        - Getting Started
+            - Give an interesting description of your workshop!
+            - E.g. you can use the marketing descriptiong (w/o the emojis
+              and make the nouns general ('you' becomes 'the reader'))
+        - Resources
+            - Images, papers, etc
+        - Author Info
+            - About yourself! This is so you get credit for your work!
+    Other Possible Sections:
+        - Datasets
+            - Separate from 'Resources' to distinguish between inspiration and
+              things like datasets used in a notebook
+        - Anything else you'd like, but try not to be redundant!

+    SECTION: Workshop Video
+    ---------
+    Most, if not all, workshops should have recordings. Once the recording
