Abstract

The CORBEL training curriculum is based on a competency profile (D9.1 - CORBEL Refined organisational competency framework needed by distributed RIs at 3 development stages) and the gap analysis that was completed based on it. The main target audience of the training programme is technical operators of biological and medical research infrastructures (BMS RIs). CORBEL organises the following types of training activities: webinars, face-to-face courses and staff programme (includes knowledge exchange workshops, staff visits and fellowships). The present deliverable reports on the online version of the CORBEL competency profile at the EBI competency mapper website and the training activities carried out since 2017. This includes 20 webinars and 8 face-to-face courses, as well as the 28 staff programme applications received. CORBEL has successfully delivered different types of training activities and their impact will continue after the end of the project. In addition to the impact on each participant who has gained new knowledge or skills, some of the courses designed within the CORBEL project will continue to be delivered as part of the EMBL (or EMBL-EBI) training programme: Data visualisation for biology, Machine learning for image analysis; User research and service design continues as part of EMBL-EBI and EMBO workshops. The new BMS RI cluster project EOSC-Life3, which will create an open, digital and collaborative space for biological and medical research, will continue training on, amongst others, ARIA, quality management and Authorisation and Authentication Infrastructure (AAI). To further promote the continuation of the project into EOSC-Life, we have delivered a joint webinar series (Engaging with your community through events and training), so that the communities within the two projects can benefit from it and that participants learn that many of the CORBEL activities will continue through EOSC-Life. EOSC-Life is a project that brings together 13 BMS RIs, including the ones in CORBEL. EOSC-Life will support the cooperation between RIs and organise training and knowledge exchange events. Many of the BMS RIs have since started their own webinar series. Recordings from the CORBEL webinar series will stay available online through the CORBEL website and the new LifeScience RI.
