Abstract

RDMTraining4NFDI supports multipliers across NFDI consortia to strengthen their research data management (RDM) competencies and training skills. The service aims to provide training and consultancy on didactic approaches, promote the creation and reuse of FAIR training materials, drive standardisation in training materials, and support the development of an RDM credential framework. This includes developing certification criteria for training materials in a community-driven review process, as well as a practical certification process for training units and courses.
