Updates from Platforms
The Training Platform held a workshop Applying bioinformatics and data science competency frameworks to ELIXIR Training in Amsterdam, from 4-6 April. 25 participants, both from within and outside of ELIXIR discussed the state of the art of the work on bioinformatics and data science competency frameworks. It was is the kick-off of the ELIXIR Implementation Study on Learning Paths. In several breakout sessions, the particpants worked on defining the use cases that will be tackled in the Implementation Study, their respective training needs, and how to describe these within the competencies and KSA framework. For each use case, champions have been identified, together they will take the next steps in defining the learning paths, which will also be implemented in TeSS. Slides and posters are available online.
