Skills4EOSC

The project set up a pan-European network of competence centres to speed up the training of European researchers and harmonise the training of new professional figures for scientific data management. The European project Skills4EOSC (Skills for the European Open Science commons: creating a training ecosystem for Open and FAIR science), is coordinated by GARR and it is funded under the Horizon Europe framework programme. Over the next three years, it will work to provide Open Science Commons and create an EOSC-ready skilled European workforce, connecting existing centres of competence in open science and scientific data management. The aim is to develop methodologies, activities and training resources to unify the current training landscape into a collaborative and reliable ecosystem and to provide dedicated community-specific support to leverage the potential of EOSC for open and data-intensive research. The project consortium brings together 44 partners, representing the most relevant experiences of national, regional, institutional and thematic competence centres for open science and scientific data management in 18 European countries (Italy, the Netherlands, France, Finland, Denmark, Norway, Greece, Bulgaria, Serbia, Macedonia, Germany, Belgium, Austria, Poland, Sweden, Estonia, and Spain).
