The new international network on education in research quality, NERQ, launched the past Friday 25th of November!
NERQ is a new initiative that results from two EU projects, namely Path2Integrity and Integrity. NERQ stands for network for education in research quality, and takes a broad perspective on research quality, namely that high standards in research integrity, research ethics, open science and responsible research & innovation meet in training and courses for students and researchers throughout various stages of their career. NERQ has the ambition to:
- Share good practices in teaching and education by sharing experiences of teachers and educators
- improve the quality of training/courses and trainers/teachers in the field
- stimulate an evidence-informed development of trainings in the field by engaging more in research activities to evaluate courses and trainings.
You can join the network and its activities for free. Send an email to buchheit@paedagogik.uni-kiel.de to be put on an mail list for the network.
The activities of the network will – for the next few months – to form Special Interest Groups (SIGs), that focus on a topic that relates to one of the ambitions, and will prepare a presentation for a live (hybrid) meeting that we will organize in March in Brussels, with help of the EC.
