The curriculum developed through the collaboration between Research4Life, DOAJ, and ASSAf spans five clusters of four weeks each, structured into four distinct modules:DOAJ Introduction & Overview: This initial module provides a foundational understanding of the Directory of Open Access Journals, detailing its mission to enhance the visibility and usability of open access scholarly journals. It introduces participants to the criteria for inclusion in the DOAJ and the benefits of being listed, supported by slides and a video presentation.Submitting a Scholarly Journal Application to DOAJ: The second module guides participants through the process of applying for DOAJ inclusion. It covers the detailed requirements for submission, such as demonstrating a robust peer-review process and providing clear information about journal ownership and policies. This module also includes practical slides and a video to aid understanding.Best Publishing Practices for Scholarly Journals: This module emphasizes the importance of adhering to best publishing practices to ensure the integrity and credibility of scholarly communications. Participants learn about maintaining high standards in publishing, including ethical guidelines and transparency, critical in the fight against predatory publishing.Maintaining Research Integrity and Ethics: The final module focuses on the ethical aspects of scholarly publishing. It discusses how to uphold research integrity, the use of AI tools in publishing responsibly, and the importance of human oversight in the publishing process.Each module is designed to equip editors and publishers, particularly from lower- and middle-income countries, with the knowledge and tools necessary to improve their journals' quality and reach, furthering the global Open Science movement.

OpenAIRE Open Science Train-the-trainer Bootcamps
Research, and how it is conducted, is ever-changing and requires those that are tasked in its support to also keep up-to-date in Research Data Management, Open Access and Open Science in general. OpenAIRE's train-the-trainer bootcamps aim at empowering trainers with the knowledge and the know-hows of Open Science so they can pass it onto the researchers and students themselves, and ultimately help create a more open, transparent and accessible research ecosystem.Learning objectivesDevelop an in-depth understanding of Open Science, Open Data, Data Management Plans (DMPs), Open Access publishing, Intellectual Property Rights (IPR), Horizon Europe requirements, OpenAIRE services, and the European Open Science Cloud (EOSC);Improving the skills to effectively communicate and teach these concepts to researchers, research support, students or any other stakeholders;Get familiar with various tools and software that support best practices in Open Science;Build confidence and gain the competencies to handle challenging questions, including those related with AI;Foster a community of trainers by providing a platform for networking and collaboration. OrganisationThe bootcamp will offer a dynamic and engaging learning experience, combining interactive live sessions in the mornings, networking opportunities and hands-on assignments. You will have the chance to hear from experts in the field and engage in discussions and sharing of your own experiences as a trainer. The networking dimension is a central component of the bootcamp's design, with a variety of activities including breakout sessions and group exercises. Additionally, the use of OpenPlato as a learning platform will facilitate the formation of what we hope to be long-lasting connections among the Open Science trainer community.Who should attendLibrarians, data stewards, research support staff or any other professional stakeholders who are planning to deliver Open Science training to researchers, research support staff and/or students. This is an intermediate-level course. You should have, at the very least, some basic knowledge of the state-of-the-art, including awareness around research data management topics and have an intermediate knowledge of Open Access publishing.Geographically, there are no restrictions and we welcome applicants from beyond Europe! But please note that some of the topics might be more Euro-centric.Only 25 applicants will be selected for the intensive 5-day course, where participants will be encouraged to interact and collaborate with their peers during and after the course.CommitmentsThis course will be free.

You will also be asked to familiarise yourself and complete some short activities the week before the bootcamp.You are also expected to conduct at least one training on an Open Science topic in your institution, country or community within the following year.Selection criteria1. Potential and motivation to conduct training on Open Science in your institution, country or community - 50%.2. Previous experience as a trainer, particularly on topics related to Open Science- 50%. During registration, you will be asked to answer the following four questions (all compulsory):Why would you like to participate in this Open Science trainer bootcamp?
