The final conference of the Skills4EOSC project, "Building Capacity for Open Science: Skills4EOSC Approaches to Training, Resources, and Networks for a Transparent and Collaborative Future", will take place on June 11, 2025, at Campus Condorcet in Paris.
Co-organized with the French Ministry of Research, CNRS, and Campus Condorcet, the event will highlight the project's key contributions to strengthening the European Open Science Cloud (EOSC) ecosystem through training, resources, and policy recommendations.
Over the past three years, Skills4EOSC has developed a European framework for Open Science and research data management training, equipping researchers and professionals with essential skills. A major outcome of the project is the establishment of a network of Competence Centres across Europe, ensuring the long-term sustainability and adoption of Open Science practices.
Key achievements of Skills4EOSC:
- Harmonisation of training curricula by using Minimum Viable Skillsets, which define essential competencies for different Open Science professional profiles;
- The FAIR-by-Design Methodology, enabling the creation of open-access, reusable training materials;
- The development of an e-learning platform, ensuring continued access to Skills4EOSC courses beyond the project’s duration;
- A set of training pathways designed for trainers and researchers looking to enhance their Open Science skills;
- Establishment of a Network of Competence Centres and European research organizations to sustain the project’s results and drive the advancement of Open Science and EOSC within a common ecosystem.
The Final Conference will be a unique opportunity to explore the project’s outcomes, engage with experts and representatives from Competence Centres, and foster collaboration between the Competence Centres and European initiatives, including the EOSC Federation Nodes.
