Astronomy Data And Computing Services - Upskilling the Australian astronomy community https://dresa.org.au/materials/astronomy-data-and-computing-services-upskilling-the-australian-astronomy-community-57afa0b9-77da-4dc1-ad29-25089f19363d The Astronomy Data And Computing Services (ADACS) initiative has been working with the Australian astronomy community for just over 3 years now. Our vision is to deliver astronomy-focused training, support and expertise to maximise the scientific return on investments in astronomical data & computing infrastructure. During these last 3 years, we have delivered dozens of face-to-face, hands-on workshops and created several hours worth of online tutorial materials. This talk will focus on our journey to deliver this computational skills training to the community, exploring how we chose different delivery pathways and content, based both on community input as well as our professional expertise and understanding of existing skill gaps. Most importantly we will discuss our plans for the future and how we are working on actively including the community in developing new training material beyond the usual skills survey. Come along to this talk if you would like to hear about a national effort to deliver computational skills training and would like to know more about potential new avenues to provide just-in-time training and how to collaborate with ADACS.  contact@ardc.edu.au astronomy, data skills, eresearch skills, skills, computational skills, training, skills gaps, astronomy-focused training, training material

23 (research data) Things https://dresa.org.au/materials/23-research-data-things-793872d2-c221-4cd6-91be-11a313c74b78 23 (research data) things is a set of training materials exploring research data management. Each of the 23 things offers a variety of learning opportunities with activities at three levels of complexity: * Getting started * Learn more * Challenge me All resources used in the program are online and free to use and reuse under a Creative Commons Attribution 4.0 International licence. You could use all of them as a self-paced course, or choose components to integrate into your own course. The 23 things are designed to build knowledge as the program progresses, so if you’re new to the world of research data management, we suggest you start with things 1-3 and then decide where you want to go from there. These materials supported an international community-based training program delivered in 2016 by the Australian National Data Service. This release migrates these materials to a GitHub repository for continued maintenance. Some updates were made to material that was outdated. We welcome contributions and suggestions via GitHub Issue or Pull Request. contact@ardc.edu.au research data management, training material

Time to fill the gaps: Building out a national training inventory https://dresa.org.au/materials/time-to-fill-the-gaps-building-out-a-national-training-inventory-cd4f10d8-83c0-4870-95e2-ee9ed4aa72c7   This community discussion seeks to bring together the instructors and facilitators tasked with upskilling researchers and support staff. While this collective dialogue among instructors is not new, what is new is the traction that various groups are getting. The newly formed group of eResearch support staff gathered by the Melbourne Data Analytics Platform (MDAP) and Sydney Informatics Hub (SIH) is one such group, as is the Lightweight Working Group (LWG): Researcher digital skills training data for enabling digital infrastructure use, spearheaded by University of Melbourne’s David Flanders during the pre-Skills Summit discussions. In this session we seek to build on the momentum, by including a hands-on working session. Participants are asked to come with information to share and questions they seek to answer. During the first half of this session, attendees will populate a public document with shareable training details. The goal is to at least double the size of the new cross-institutional national training collection started by the LWG. The second half of this session will be to ask questions to arrive at next steps. What do we need to do to continue building out this national training inventory and who will be in charge of maintaining and distributing the archive? What platforms exist and are used to capture training data and material and make it readily maintainable and findable? Can the material be reused and how do we recognise and capture re-use? Do we know about how to apply a license to our materials for appropriate reuse or do we need guidance? While there will likely be more questions than these, one question has been answered. When can we move from talking to doing? That time is now. contact@ardc.edu.au training inventory, training registry, national skills initiatives, training material
