CoreTrustSeal

CoreTrustSeal Assembly of Reviewer Workshop series
2021-05-06 14:00 - 2021-05-25 15:00 (Europe/Helsinki)
CoreTrustSeal and FAIRsFAIR are organising a series of workshops from 6-25 May 2021. The workshops consist of a series of four interactive sessions over the course of four weeks and an optional “Open Coffee hour”. It will give the CoreTrustSeal Assembly of Reviewers the opportunity to hone their “reviewer skills” by discussing practical questions pertaining to the review process (e.g. What are the CoreTrustSeal expectations from applicants? How detailed should reviewer feedback be?). In addition, these workshops will foster the exchange of more general ideas about repository certification today and tomorrow.
Note: Participation to the workshops is possible through invitation.
