Call for Participation

We are pleased to offer a few open spots for our workshop "Research Data and Software Competencies" as part of the Volkswagenstiftung Themenwoche "Digitale Kompetenzen in der Wissenschaft".

The workshop takes place December 2-4 at the Xplanatorium Herrenhausen Hannover.

Organizers are the National Research Data Infrastructure (NFDI) consortia NFDIxCS, NFDI4DS, and the Data Literacy Centers QUADRIGA and DKZ.2R.

We will work on the following questions:

  • #1 What are the essential research data and software competencies that are often overlooked (e.g., in existing (data literacy) frameworks, programs, and curricula)?
  • #2 How can we effectively teach research data and software competencies to researchers, considering their specific needs and constraints?
  • #3 How can we (workshop participants) effectively collaborate to develop and possibly share educational resources and training programs?

We are looking for people with a strong interest in at least one of these topics who are willing to actively participate in our workshop by bringing in their perspectives during the event.

If you are interested in participating in our workshop, please submit a short motivation (no template necessary) along with your position and affiliation to the organizing committee at rdsc@listserv.dfn.de

  • Application deadline: 8.11.2024
  • Decision of acceptance: 11.11.2024

The travel and accommodation expenses for the participants will be covered by the organizers.

If you have any questions, please do not hesitate to contact us at rdsc@listserv.dfn.de.
