Good morning, all!

Please see below for an exciting opportunity to work with the Data Curation Network on extending their data curation curriculum! Curators will work in cohorts to develop training materials for curating code, geospatial data, scientific images and simulation data. Statements of interest are due by 4 November.

Sincerely,
Erin

Hello RDA community,

 

[Please excuse cross-postings]

 

As part of the IMLS grant “Developing Specialized Data Curation Training to Address Needed Expertise in Focused Areas“ (RE-252343-OLS-22), the Data Curation Network and partners are excited to work on a project to extend the current DCN curriculum! We are currently recruiting team members to join instructional cohorts to develop data curation training materials for four specialized data types:

  • Code
  • Geospatial data
  • Scientific images
  • Simulation data

 

These cohorts will have the opportunity to develop new educational materials and participate in a knowledge network to build curation capacity within the library and archives profession. Read more about the project approach on this recent blog post. As part of the project, cohort members will:

  • Attend a 1.5 day planning and cohort building meeting in Washington DC on January 25-26, 2023 (travel funds provided)
  • Participate in a knowledge network made up of the four cohorts in Spring and Summer 2023 and develop new curriculum materials for a selected data type with a group of their peers (estimated time commitment 5 hours per month)
  • Provide instructional support and participate in a 2 day pilot workshop in October 2023 (travel funds provided)
  • Publicly disseminate relevant curriculum materials for broader reuse and as a citable contribution to the field
  • Receive a $750 instructor stipend
  • Please note that currently international applications are not being accepted due to funding limitations

 

If you are interested in applying, please complete this brief statement of interest form by November 4, 2022. 

 

Acceptance for cohort members will be announced by the end of November. If you have any questions, please contact sophia.laf...@duke.edu.  

 

Thanks, 

Wanda

I hate to point this out, but this opportunity is only for US folks. The fine print says that international folks aren’t permitted based on the terms of the funding. 😟

Thank you, Alicia and Eugene, and my apologies all, I should have read more closely! I assumed since the post was sent to RDA that it was open more widely, but I see now that is says not open internationally. I’ll pay more attention next time, and this time will just have to look forward to seeing the outputs of the WGs.

 

Sincerely,
Erin

You don't often get email from alic...@gmail.com. Learn why this is important
