Course Overview

The Open Source Train the Trainer Workshop is a specialized bootcamp designed for professionals aiming to deliver expert-level training in Open Science practices. Hosted by OpenAIRE, this intensive program targets librarians, data stewards, and research support staff who are preparing to train researchers and students in areas such as Research Data Management (RDM), FAIR principles, Open Access publishing, and Intellectual Property Rights (IPR). As part of the Open Science movement, which is now mandated by major funders like the European Commission and adopted by over 80% of EU research institutions, this workshop equips participants with the pedagogical tools and technical knowledge needed to lead effective training sessions. The course does not align with a traditional certification exam but prepares attendees to earn the “Open Science Trainer (OpenAIRE)” badge upon successful completion of all assignments and live session participation.

Participants engage with key Open Science platforms and tools including OpenAIRE services, the European Open Science Cloud (EOSC), OpenPlato learning environment, and RDM tools across the data curation lifecycle. The hands-on lab component takes place in a hybrid learning environment using OpenPlato, where learners design a full training plan tailored to real-world scenarios—such as creating a Data Management Plan (DMP) workshop or delivering a session on AI ethics in research. Through interactive live sessions, breakout groups, and peer-reviewed assignments, attendees gain practical experience in structuring engaging online, face-to-face, and hybrid trainings. A core project involves presenting a complete training strategy to peers, incorporating feedback and best practices in adult learning theory and audience engagement.

By completing the Open Source Train the Trainer Workshop, participants join a recognized community of Open Science trainers supported by OpenAIRE, an initiative with global influence in advancing transparent and accessible research. Graduates report a 40% increase in training effectiveness within their institutions, with many going on to lead national workshops and contribute to policy development. Koenig Solutions enhances this experience with Guaranteed-to-Run scheduling and access to official OpenAIRE courseware, ensuring learners receive up-to-date, vendor-authorized content. This workshop ultimately empowers professionals to become certified Open Science Trainers, driving institutional change and career advancement in research infrastructure, academic libraries, and open knowledge advocacy.
