The OLS program is for people interested in applying open principles in their work and becoming Open Science ambassadors in their communities.

About

This is a 16-week long personal mentorship and cohort-based training, where participants (organisers, hosts, mentors and project leads/mentees) of this program will:

  • share their expertise and gain knowledge essential to create, lead, and sustain an Open Science project
  • connect with members across different projects, communities, backgrounds, and identities
  • empower each other to become effective Open Science ambassadors in their communities

Participants join this program with a project that they either are already working on or want to develop during this program individually or in teams.

OLS schedule overview. In the middle, the timeline represents the 16 weeks. On the top, boxes in green represent the 8 different cohort calls pointing to the corresponding weeks (even week numbers). Below the week timeline, blue boxes represent the mentor-mentee meetings pointing to the uneven number weeks. Below the blue boxes, are red boxes corresponding to 3 skill-up calls: "GitHub tutorial for beginners" (week 5), "Open Leadership: Academia, industry, and beyond" (week 9), "Self-care & social call" (week 1s){: .schedule-overview}
