Framed within the context of the ISPAS Project, this course is addressed to all IDIBELL predoctoral researchers.
This course focuses on data management, as “good research needs good data”. The modules will follow the three-step concept:
(i) manage your data,
(ii) make them FAIR, and
(iii) if possible, make them open.

A practical exercise on drafting the data management plan of real datasets is included. Further, the course emphasizes the development of skills related to data stewardship, which according to the Realising the Open Science Cloud report (2016) will be a huge professional opportunity for PhDs. Data stewards support researchers in making data FAIR; their skills will be crucial in the making of the European Open Areté course proposal Science Cloud (EOSC), as FAIR data are EOSC’s building blocks.
