How to Install VASP	First install VASP.
Workshops	The collection of workshops is a good place for the introduction to the basics of VASP.
Lectures	The collection of lectures is a good place to start as well.
Tutorials and Examples	The collection of tutorials and examples is a good place to learn the usage of VASP.

Electronic Minimization	PAW, Mixing, etc.
XC Functionals	LDA, GGA, metaGGA, Hybrids, vdW functionals, etc.
Hybrid Functionals	Hybrid-DFT methods, Hartree-Fock method, etc.
Structural Optimization	Ionic Mimimization Methods, etc.
Lattice Vibrations
Molecular Dynamics
Dielectric Properties	Static and frequency dependent dielectric properties, Berry phases, Spectroscopy (UV, VIS, X-ray), etc.
Linear response
NMR
Many-Body Perturbation Theory	ACFDT, BSE, GW, etc.
Magnetism
Surfaces
Defects
Molecules
Transition States	Elastic band method, improved dimer method, etc.
Technical Implementation	Parallelization, GPU, etc.
Theoretical Background	Important relations covering DFT, PAW, etc.

Here we can link to postprocessing programs and script, visualization tools, etc etc.

If you have questions or run into trouble, please have a look and/or post a question at the VASP forum.
