Group actions
- Please read the latest SB workplan Scientific Work Plan 2024-2026 DRAFT.docx.pdf
- Draft mandate for years 2024-2026 (shared with SB May 14)
- Record of activities for year 2023-2024 (completed)
We recently made a decision to meet every other month instead of every month, as of June 2024. We will skip Aug due to vacations, therefore the next meeting will occur on Sept 3, 2024 (subgroups should maintain their existing meeting schedules).
The purpose of the Training Group is to:
- Ensure that our goals align and build on the DDI Alliance Scientific Work Plan.
- Introduce people to DDI and improve people's competence in working with DDI.
- Promote deeper understanding of DDI’s work products by addressing specific topics.
- Gear training to specific audiences as appropriate (for example, by beginning to set up training materials and events in languages other than English).
- Develop expertise within the Working Group for carrying out training.
- Maintain a training library with updated training material in languages other than English for reuse

Meeting Notes for current and previous years
The Training Group meets the first Tuesday of the month at 9 am (EST) / 2 pm (UTC) / 3 pm (CET) / 4 pm (CAT/EET) using Zoom.
We recently made a decision to meet every other month instead of every month, as of June 2024. We will skip Aug due to vacations, therefore the next meeting will occur on Sept 3, 2024 (subgroups should maintain their existing meeting schedules).
To join the meeting online please see agenda.
Use your microphone and speakers (VoIP) - a headset is recommended. Please set yourself on mute when you are not speaking to prevent background noises.
Actions which are not specific to each sub-group activities listed below
- Alina DANCIU to add RDA slides to Zenodo.
- Use new workplan to advertise what we do and recruit new members.
- Contact and set up a meeting to understand what CODATA RDA schools do/teach and what they would be interested in Jennifer Zeiger to ask Laura for any info about background for this.
- All to discuss location of suggested training sets. No decision made on the location (website, google doc…). Next steps?
