Navigate the open access publishing process and identify predatory journals. Apply open licenses for scientific papers, data, and code. Implement transparency and reproducibility practices in research workflows. Use FAIR principles to prepare and share data responsibly. Evaluate tools and repositories supporting open science. Draft an Open Science implementation plan and contribute to open peer review. Activities: Learners engage with key resources and examples, practice applying licenses, create metadata for datasets, evaluate journals and repositories, contribute to peer discussions, and complete quizzes. The learning path concludes with a synthesis activity where participants produce a short Open Science Implementation Plan tailored to their research or study context. This course is designed for 13 hours of online learning activities, finalised with a quizz and a synthesis activity and earn the credits of 0.5 ECTS. This certificate is validated by Politehnica University of Timisoara, Romania, as part of the E³UDRES² – Ent-r-e-novators to acknowledge the successful completion of required criteria for intermediate level training.
