I can recommend:

Learn you a Haskell for great good!
http://learnyouahaskell.com/
Tremendously informative and entertaining.

Also, when I first started playing around with Haskell, I installed only the GHC compiler.
It would have been better to install the Haskell Platform: Batteries Included

http://hackage.haskell.org/platform/

This way you can "cabal install" your modules with automatic dependency resolution.

Any minimum requirements for the workshop? Other than having Haskell

I am a newbie to Haskell. Any recommended reads, exercises or
tutorials to warm up?
