Information and academic skills  
As a lecturer, do you want to make your students more information literate? Then request a workshop tailored to the needs of your group in terms of time, level and subjects. This can be about conducting a literature search, the phases of the search process, search techniques, but also an instruction on managing your data and monitoring research impact. As a researcher or student, you can of course also request a workshop with your own group. 
For EUR students and staff

Financial databases 
In addition to the monthly workshops, the Erasmus Data Service Center (EDSC) also offers workshops on request. As a lecturer, do you want to have a specific topic covered in your class about finding financial data? Please contact the EDSC.

Bibliometric (citation)databases and analysis tools 
The Research Evaluation and Assessment Service (REAS) team of the University Library offers workshops on the responsible and effective use of bibliometric databases (Web of Science, Scopus, Google Scholar) and analysis tools (InCites, SciVal, Publish or Perish, Altmetric Explorer). The exact content will be defined in mutual consultation.
For EUR researchers

Researcher identifiers & profiles  
An ORCID iD offers you the possibility to present yourself and your publications well and make these more visible. That’s when a number has many advantages! The workshop offers you the possibility to be more visible as a unique researcher by creating your own ORCID iD, Google Scholar Profile and/or ResearcherID and checking your Scopus Author Identifier. Also check the related e-modules.
For EUR researchers

Python programming language  
Learn just enough about the Python programming language to be able to write functions or small programs yourself. Then sign up for this workshop. Apart of an introduction to Python, you will explore parts of data science; using Pandas to read in csv files, cleaning and changing them and exploring the data using visualizations. Interested in this workshop?

How to communicate science to a lay audience?
The call for communicating science to a lay audience remains to be a hot topic. Unfortunately, there is typically little to no formal training available to help students improve their communication skills with a non-academic audience. In this interactive workshop, participants will explore the nature of different strategies in disseminating their research to a lay audience. Interested in this workshop (online or on location)?
