Training Material made FAIR by Design

This 2 day course is based on the FAIR training handbook and 10 simple rules to make material FAIR publication. All sessions are structured in a way that complement each other aiming to introduce participants with a theoretical & hands-on approach of how to design FAIR training material.

Please see the course website, which will be updated regularly, for more information

Topics covered will include:

• FAIR vs OPEN training material
• Training material documentation and reproducibility 
• (ontology, Learning Outcomes,etc)
• Illustrations, keeping it FAIR
• E-learning and videos, challenges and solutions to keep it FAIR
• Unique identifiers and version control

Activities are intended to increase the technical skills and critical thinking during the development of a new training course. From A to Z participants are going to be challenged to work in a group to build a FAIR lesson on a topic to be presented at the end of the course. Come inspired!
