 I'd like to share with you a couple of updates about how I walk in Europe around European Open Science Cloud skills and training, and it's a report from the walking group shared by Natalia Manila from OpenAir and Mancien Gadar from the European University Association Lab, and I'm a rapporteur for this walking group. It covers both digital skills, which include an understanding of data, software and tools, and also European Open Science Cloud skills, mainstreaming Open Science practices, allowing all types of actors to interact with European Open Science Cloud or EUOSC ecosystem, and also develop leadership in certain communities for open and data intensive science. And we focus on facilitation, coordination and alignment. The Europe now is writing a document which is called Strategic Research and Innovation Agenda, and a draft document went for consultations, and as you see on those slides, skills and training were mentioned as highly relevant areas for any strategic research and innovation developments in Europe. Our walking group was formed in January this year, and it includes 42 members. Some of them were nominated by European Union member state and associated countries. Some representatives come from the European Commission, and we also have a lot of representatives of European Commission-funded projects that support European Open Science Cloud and have training activities. And we're focusing on skills and training, competencies, capabilities, and some principles and vision that drive our work, recognition of digital skills and qualifications, equitable and balanced digital research market, cross-sector mobility and employability, and other areas covered in this slide. We structure our work in four task forces. So the first one is looking into EUOSC minimal skillsets, identifying and prioritizing open science and digital skills for EUOSC. Then the second task force is looking into organizational models for competent centers and the alignment on the national and European level. We also have a task force looking into their national strategies for digital skills and role for EUOSC, and the last one is looking into specifications of training catalogs. I'm presenting you still walking progress. Those task forces will release their reports in the end of November, beginning of December this year. I'll start with the first one and you can see the members of minimal EUOSC skillset working group. And it looks into a set of skills which are essential for EUOSC and which were identified by other projects and initiatives. And as you can see, there are many of them already. And this task force tries to summarize their actors, their skills and training needs in EUOSC user ecosystem. And the next step is to map existing skills and competence frameworks and then identify and prioritize open science and digital skillset for EUOSC and also all EUOSC actors. Some of the skills that we addressed in the diagram, which I will show in a minute. So this diagram is still walking progress. We had consultations and we received a lot of feedback and we are revising it. So you can see at least different actors and how they interact with European open science clouds. Let's close a look. It covers data professionals, researchers, citizens, EUOSC actors, policy makers and others. We're looking into data skills, open science skills and also skills needed to run infrastructures or services and tools for EUOSC. And just some examples of actors that we have and we're still revising definitions. So bear with us if something that you see on the slide isn't what you would expect. So for example, if we take a data steward, then EUOSC skills that this data steward would require would be deep understanding of principles, ability to use EUOSC core services for publishing data and preserving data, and ability to practice open science principles and exchange services related to data. Another example is a researcher and research is a main target for EUOSC and a researcher would need general knowledge of EUOSC including fair principles and then ability to use EUOSC discipline specific and cross-discipline services. Policy maker is another actor that we have in our diagram and policy makers need reasonable knowledge of EUOSC with special focus on open science privacy, security, fair principles and then ability to use EUOSC discipline specific and generic services. Of this diagram will be part of the report which is in the making now and this report will map existing competencies and skills, describe different roles in the context of different organizations and how EUOSC might support those roles and this report is coming mid-November. Another taskforce focuses on options for organizational models and coordination of competent centers and you can see members of the taskforce on the slide and I'd like to stress that we're not setting up an EUOSC competent center, we're looking at existing plurality on the national level, institutional level, research infrastructure level, professional organizations level, European level and we're also looking at different aspects of digital skills, data, infrastructures, open science and we would like to support some kind of alignment of those competent centers so what we're doing now we're running a series of interviews with existing competent centers, looking at their organizational models, what works, what doesn't and what kind of advice we could provide for those who are starting and what we already noticed of course is that there is a lot of diversity in different institutions in different countries and diversity is the next aspect that we have in Europe and this is a definition of a competent center which we borrowed and adapted from Ferris Fair projects are deliverable and when we're doing those interviews we're looking at positioning and training priorities of competent centers, the skills and competencies focus and we're using a diagram which I mentioned earlier from our taskforce one that we're also looking into governance, business models and sustainability and coordination and alignment with other initiatives in other institutions, countries and across Europe. Our third task force is looking into skills and training in national strategies and you can see the taskforce members on this slide and Europe has quite a complex landscape when we talk about digital skills so we have all these different actors and programs that are going on now and here we have to really look in divided context and our goal is to provide an overview for national digital skills initiatives, identify gaps and overlaps and then provide some insights on how to best position your skills and training in digital skills, national strategies and agenda and develop recommendations for policy makers and it's a study which we commissioned to held the key consultants and this study will be released in the end of this year includes interviews in nine countries and some initial highlights from interviews that already took place current governance fragmentation and diverse priorities in different digital skills agenda there is no integrated framework for on its national levels and there are very diverse stakeholders a lot of ongoing training activities not so many certification frameworks and there is still a separation between digital skills discussions on the national level and open access, open data, open science policies and priorities and open science strategies and policies are mainly focusing on research and infrastructure not so much in skills and fair data action plan alignment is still needed so there will be more towards the end of the year and our last task force is looking into training catalogs and you can see the members listed here and existing training catalogs and standards were mapped and we're doing this in collaboration with our initiatives for example RD education and training interest group, regional European projects that have a task force on training and skills and they are building a common catalog for training resources we also have discipline specific eOSC projects building discipline specific training catalogs we have two projects that are building and managing eOSC portal we have projects like open air and community of practice of training coordinators but also looking into interperability and alignment or different resources and a scope of this study will be based on eOSC cases which of their actors defined in the task force one and it will include vision motivation and ambition for eOSC training catalog of catalogs and will address users' interpretations between different catalogs or different quality aspects metadata elements overview of ongoing initiatives and recommendations for the next steps so thank you very much and happy to answer any questions live
