 A Getting Started Guide to the Genomic Epidemiology of SARS-CoV-2
 *****************************************************************
 
-This template and tutorial will walk you through the process of running a basic phylogenetic analysis on SARS-CoV-2 data.
-We've created these resources with the goal of enabling Departments of Public Health to start using Nextstrain to understand their SARS-CoV-2 genomic data within 1-2 hours.
-In addition to the phylogenetic analysis described here, you can use our "drag-and-drop" tool for a clade assignment, mutations calling, and basic sequence quality checks at `clades.nextstrain.org <https://clades.nextstrain.org/>`_.
-
-If you prefer video format to working through this tutorial in the written documentation, check out the :doc:`video tutorial walkthrough <videos>`.
+This is the documentation for the SARS-CoV-2 workflow maintained and actively used by the Nextstrain core team.
 
-We also recommend `this 1-hour video overview <https://youtu.be/m4_F2tG58Pc>`_ by Heather Blankenship on how to deploy Nextstrain for a Public Health lab.

+Introduction
+============
+
+These tutorials will walk you through the process of running a basic genomic surveillance workflow using SARS-CoV-2 data.
+We've created these resources with the goal of enabling Departments of Public Health to start using Nextstrain to understand their SARS-CoV-2 genomic data within 1-2 hours.
+
+At the end, you will be able to:
+
+- create phylogenetic trees of SARS-CoV-2 genomes from different sources including GISAID and Nextstrain-curated GenBank data
+- visualize the resulting trees in :term:`docs.nextstrain.org:Auspice`
+- define subsampling logic for your own genomic epidemiological analysis
+
+After completing these tutorials, you may wish to `learn more about genomic epidemiology <link to Alli's gen epi book or some other resources?>`_ or `review all possible options to configure your SARS-CoV-2 analyses with Nextstrain <../reference/configuration.html>`_.
+
+If you prefer video format to working through these written tutorials, check out the :doc:`video tutorial walkthrough <../videos>`.
+
+We also recommend `this 1-hour video overview <https://youtu.be/m4_F2tG58Pc>`_ by Heather Blankenship on how to deploy Nextstrain for a Public Health lab.
