The European project Skills4EOSC, coordinated by GARR, the Italian education and research network, is coming to an end and will present its results at the final conference, to be held on Wednesday, June 11, 2025, in Paris, at Campus Condorcet.

Organized in collaboration with the French Ministry of Research, CNRS, and Campus Condorcet, the event will highlight the project's main achievements, aimed at equipping researchers and professionals with the skills needed to strengthen the European Open Science Cloud (EOSC) ecosystem. Over the past three years, Skills4EOSC has built a solid European framework for training in Open Science and research data management, offering a comprehensive training program and policy recommendations to promote the adoption of open and transparent practices. One of the project’s key outcomes is the creation of a network of European Competence Centres, which will ensure the sustainability of the developed solutions by supporting scientific communities and institutions in enhancing their Open Science capabilities.

Key achievements of Skills4EOSC:

• Harmonisation of training curricula through the Minimum Viable Skillset methodology, defining essential competencies for different Open Science professional profiles;
• The FAIR-by-Design Methodology, enabling the creation of open-access, reusable training materials;
• The development of an e-learning platform, ensuring continued access to Skills4EOSC courses beyond the project’s duration;
• A set of training pathways, including Master Trainer courses, designed for trainers and researchers looking to enhance their Open Science skills;
• Establishment of a Network of Competence Centres and European research organizations to sustain the project’s results and drive the advancement of Open Science and EOSC within a common ecosystem.
