>
>   * Training targeting graduate schools in European universities, e.g.

>   * Courses for trainers/multipliers who can carry on further training
>     and dissemination activities within their institutions, countries
>     and/or disciplinary communities.
>   * Workshops for researchers participating in community/disciplinary
>     conferences.
>   * Training in compliance with the open access policies and rules of
>     participation set out for Horizon 2020.
>   * Training in integrating open access and open data principles and
>     practices in the current research work-flow by targeting young
>     researchers.
>   * Training targeting one of the stakeholders -- academic staff
>     (researchers and students), institutions (research administrators,
>     librarians), research project managers, policy-makers and staff
>     working  in funding bodies.
>
> *FOSTER support*
>
> FOSTER will provide assistance in shaping the training programme, 
> selecting training materials and speakers/trainers, etc. Co-funding 
> for the events will also be provided (such as cost of the venue, 
> materials, travel of speakers, etc.).

> *How to apply and a deadline*

>
>   * Aims and topics of the event targeting open access and open
>     science practices, in particular in relation to publicly funded
>     research in Horizon 2020 and national funding schemes;
>   * Outreach potential (number of relevant stakeholders directly
>     involved on the training event);
>   * Potential for "multiplication" (institutional or disciplinary) of
>     train the trainers programmes;
