The Survey of Health, Ageing and Retirement in Europe (SHARE): Special Data Sets

The Survey of Health, Ageing and Retirement in Europe (SHARE) is a multidisciplinary and cross-national panel database of micro data on health, socio-economic status and social and family networks of about 140,000 individuals aged 50 or older (around 380,000 interviews).

SERISS Project

Synergies for Europe's Research Infrastructures in the Social Sciences (SERISS) is a four-year project that aims to strengthen and harmonise social science research across Europe. It brings together leading European Research Infrastructures in the social sciences - ESS, the Survey of Health, Ageing and Retirement in Europe (SHARE ERIC) and Consortium of European Social Science Data Archives (CESSDA ERIC) - alongside organisations representing the Generations and Gender Programme (GGP), European Values Study (EVS) and the WageIndicator Survey.

Focused around three key themes – key challenges facing cross-national data collection, breaking down barriers between research infrastructures, and embracing the future of social sciences – SERISS will address issues relating to survey design and data collection, data management and curation from a collaborative, cross-national perspective. The project will better equip Europe’s social science data infrastructures to play a major role in addressing the key societal challenges facing Europe today and ensure that national and European policymaking is built on a solid base of the highest-quality socio-economic evidence.

SERISS has developed a suite of online tools, webinars and lectures to provide training on data management, data handling and harmonisation, as well as on statistical analysis to a wider social science community.  

FOSTER Open Sciences: Courses

FOSTER Plus (Fostering the practical implementation of Open Science in Horizon 2020 and beyond) is a 2-year, EU-funded project, carried out by 11 partners across 6 countries. The primary aim is to contribute to a real and lasting shift in the behaviour of European researchers to ensure that Open Science (OS) becomes the norm.

The FOSTER portal is an e-learning platform that brings together the best training resources addressed to those who need to know more about Open Science, or need to develop strategies and skills for implementing Open Science practices in their daily workflows. Here you will find a growing collection of training materials. Many different users - from early-career researchers, to data managers, librarians, research administrators, and graduate schools - can benefit from the portal. In order to meet their needs, the existing materials will be extended from basic to more advanced-level resources. In addition, discipline-specific resources will be created.

DARIAH-CAMPUS

DARIAH-Campus is a hosting platform and discovery framework for learning resources in the digital arts and humanities.

Software Carpentry

Teaching basic lab skills for research computing. Lessons and workshops in three core topics: the Unix shell, version control with Git, and a programming language (Python or R). 

OpenAIRE Training and Support

OpenAIRE wants to shift scholarly communication towards openness and transparency and facilitate innovative ways to communicate and monitor research. OpenAIRE provides: open science services, training for open science and open science policies. 

OpenAIRE Support aims to train researchers, content providers, policy makers to acquire skills and competencies to Open Science practice. For this purpose, guides, factsheets and webinars to fostering culture change for Open Science practice have been set up, and workshops are organised, OpenAIRE Support also provides use cases of OpenAIRE services for different stakeholders.

Foster Course on Course Creation

The aim of this tutorial is to assist course instructors with creating new courses and editing existing ones in the FOSTER portal.

After completing the module, the course instructors will be able to:

  • propose a course
  • upload course material in the portal
  • create a course
  • add a lesson and lesson material
  • create and add a quiz
  • publish the course
  • communicate with the course participants (use the Forums)
