    This follow-up course leverages the understanding gained in FAIR Awareness.  The course focus is on how to conduct a rigorous FAIR assessment of a given resource, using FAIR Implementation Profiles (FIPs), part of the Three-Point-FAIRification Framework. This approach aims to help participants to better understand FAIR implementation solutions that drive convergence across communities.

    After completing the course, participants can qualify as FIP implementers (see as reference: https://zenodo.org/records/13277614 )  with the GO FAIR Foundation, giving them the confidence to raise FAIR awareness in their organizations  and provide advise on how best to implement FAIR fit to purpose.

    The online course involving lectures and discussions, hands-on exercises, training videos, assistance time in workshops and a final exam for getting the qualification for a FIP facilitator

    This course can only be attended only after completion of the FAIR Awareness course. Participation is recorded as publicly available nanopublications, exam dates will be in early Autumn to offer assistance time to happen in real world workshops before the exam.

  • Module 2: FER

    This session will explain the typology of FAIR Supporting Resources and in particular the FAIR Enabling Resources (FER) addressed in the FAIR implementation profile. The different types will be discussed along with examples frequently used in practice.

  • Module 3: Nanopublications

    Nanopublications are a knowledge representation language to express FAIR metadata in RDF. FERs are described using nanopublications to make them reusable in the FIP approach. You will learn how to create, find and reuse them within a platform called Nanodash but also in the FIP Wizard.

  • Module 4: Curation

    To be useful, FERs need to be described with good metadata. The FIP approach allows anyone to provide those descriptions. The FIP expert community curates this knowledge base by improving and qualifying the provided descriptions. In this session, the qualification process will be presented with hands-on instruction.

  • Module 5: Convergence

    FAIR leaves maximal freedom for stakeholders to choose implementations that best serve their needs. At the same time agreement on the reuse of standards can ensure the speedy development of wide-spread FAIR infrastructures. This session will provide methods for intelligently navigating the large implementation space and making smart decisions that maximize FAIR and minimize the needless reinvention of the wheel.
