FitSM Foundation Training and Certification

FitSM is an open standards family for lightweight IT Service Management (ITSM) and the reference framework being used in both EOSC-hub and EOSCpilot projects. Through FitSM, the project aims at conducting effective IT service management in a federated environment and achieving a baseline level of ITSM that can act in support of ‘management interoperability’ in federated environments where disparate organisations must cooperate to manage services. The Foundation level training provides an introduction to the basic IT service management concepts and terms, outlines the purpose and structure of FitSM standards and their relationship to other standards and understand the process framework underlying FitSM, and details the formal requirements defined within it.

The EOSC-hub all-hands meeting offers the opportunity to be trained in FitSM as well as to receive a formal certification backed by certification authority ICO-Cert for anyone successful passing the exam (20 multiple choice questions, 13 required to pass). Both the costs of the training and the exam is covered and offered to you by the EOSC-hub project for free. The training will take place on Thursday afternoon (19 Apr) and Friday morning (20 Apr), ensuring minimal overlap with other project meetings. Only participants who register in advance can be admitted to the training, so please be sure to select the option during registration. A limited number of participants is admitted, however, it is available to any interested project members and is highly recommended for process owners and managers, task leaders and WP managers. Other training events will be organized during the project for anyone unable to attend due to clashes.

      WP11 - Tools and Services for Research Data Management A.0.23

      A.0.23

      Malaga

      Research Data Management (RDM) concerns plans, policies, programs and practices that control, protect, deliver and enhance the value of research data. The aim of the training is to present and discuss research data management tools and services and is aimed at researchers and research communities.

      The training consists of three parts:

      1.) Framework for Discipline-specific RDM (30 minutes) (René)
      One size does not fit all. Research data management plans take specific issues into consideration, e.g. in relation to the scientific discipline. So-called Domain Data Protocols (DDPs) are a pragmatic solution to ensure proper implementation of individual DMPs.
      The state of art of DDPs is presented and the relevance for specific situation is discussed.

      Participants will get insight into good practice concerning management of research data (research products / research artifacts), taking specific disciplinary issues into consideration.

      2.) EOSC-hub services that support the research data life-cycle (30 minutes) (Shaun)

      The EOSC-hub services are classified and discussed in relation to their role in the research data life-cycle. The research data life-cycle represents all of the stages of data throughout its life from its creation for a study to its distribution and reuse. It is an important principle in the data management planning.

      Participants will learn which service can be used to support the life-cycle of data throughout the research process.

      3.) Tools to create Data management plans (30 minutes) (René / Shaun)

      A DMP-tool helps researchers create data management plans. A DMP is a formal document that outlines what a researcher will do with her data during and after a research project. Several profiles / templates for DMPs do exist, e.g. aimed at specific funding scheme.
      A number of DMP-tools exist or are under development. An overview will be given.
