Train the Trainer course

For two days we’ll hold an in-depth course to train you as a trainer. This will happen either online or on-site depending on the Fellows’ preferences.

First task

You will start the first task, by creating short, engaging videos of RDM training. Ideally, you will start in December, but we’ll offer different timelines to fit your other commitments if needed.

March 2023
Second and third tasks

From April, until October, you will provide evidence of two activities that you’ve performed at your organisation to improve capacity on RDM or build/enhance a research community on the topic.
You’ll use the video materials you’ve created and those of your peers on the Fellowship

Final meeting

Time to say goodbye to all your peers at a final meeting with the coordination team.
But this will not be the end of your journey. Fellowship Alumni will always be part of the RDM Community we are building in the UK, with opportunities to get involved as an expert or a reviewer in future cohorts. You will stay in touch forever as part of a bigger community of Data Stewards and future Fellows, as well as access to the ELIXIR-UK network if your organisation is not part of it.
