The call for applications for participation in the 2nd OSTrails Train-the-Trainer Bootcamp is open!

We are pleased to announce the second edition of the OSTrails Train-the-trainer Bootcamp, to be held online September 22-24.
The event offers training on the three OSTrails pillars - Data Management Plans, Scientific Knowledge Graphs, and FAIR Assessment. It aims to provide participants with the opportunity to work directly with the teams developing the OSTrails tools and services, while gaining a practical understanding of implementation requirements, integration workflows and training approaches.
The bootcamp is meant for OSTrails pilots, trainers, IT infrastructures managers, research support staff and data stewards from national infrastructures and research iInfrastructures (recruited from relevant competence centres and training initiatives of the European Research Area and ESFRI RIs).
Participation in the bootcamp is free of charge but requires prior registration. Applications will be evaluated based on the information provided in the registration form, including motivation, expected impact, and future plans for applying the knowledge gained during the training.
Participants are expected to have some prior knowledge of the main OSTrails topics and to plan training activities on these topics within their communities.
The first edition of this bootcamp, held in March 2026, was exclusively aimed at OSTrails pilots. This second edition, however, is open to the wider community. You can explore the main outcomes of the first edition in this news item.
Registrations close on 3 July 2026.
Applicants will be notified by 13 July 2026 whether their application has been accepted.
