Training for EC project officers on open access and open data in Horizon 2020

FOSTER (Facilitate Open Science Training for European Research) is a 2-year, EU-Funded (FP7) project, carried out by 13 partners across 8 countries. The primary aim is to produce a European-wide training programme that will help researchers, postgraduate students, librarians and other stakeholders to incorporate Open Access approaches into their existing research methodologies.

Speakers from the FOSTER consortium ran four half-day workshops in Brussels at the end of June. The courses were for project officers at the European Commission. A summary of the key points as well as the presentations’ slides are now available.
