The Bio-IT training Catalogue
We want you(r training requests)! New year, new resolutions. It has always been central in the Bio-IT’s mission to plan and deliver a curriculum of training courses designed on the needs and wishes of the (biocomputational) community at EMBL. From this year, we have a tool to collect them in a systematic way: the Bio-IT training catalogue.
The platform was initiated, and developed to an advanced state, from Bio-IT’s summer intern Emily Simons, who joined us through the DAAD RISE project.

In the context of the Data Sciences strategy at EMBL and in particular in WorkStream 1 - “Internal and external training & support”, we collected a glossary of competencies that we are going to use for different purposes.
Bio-IT competencies This glossary includes two types of terms: the skills, representing expertise, abilities to use tools, and the topics, matters of knowledge.
