Description

In this course, you will learn from A to Z about how to design a FAIR training material. You will 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!

It is based on the FAIR training handbook from ELIXIR and the 10 simple rules for making material FAIR for publication. All sessions are structured to complement each other, aiming to introduce participants to a theoretical & hands-on approach to designing FAIR training material.

Activities are designed to enhance technical skills and critical thinking, while also developing a new training course.

After the session, you can schedule a one-on-one meeting with a trainer to FAIRify your material together and apply the new skills in your own material.

Objectives
By the end of the course, participants will be able to:

  • Create a FAIR and open training material from the start
  • Apply FAIR principles to all elements of training material
  • Use AI tools in the content creation of FAIR training material
