Become a certified trainer on research integrity and ethics
On this page you can find current offers of training, both free and for a fee, provided by our partner projects.
VIRT2UE
The VIRT2UE Project, founded by the European Commission in 2018, has developed a blended learning train the trainer program on Research Integrity which provides participants with the knowledge and skills to conduct a research integrity course. Trainers are taught how to foster reflection on scientific virtues in researchers, and how to promote understanding of the European Code of Conduct for Research Integrity.
This training program is offered at different locations across Europe.
The training will offer:
- Face to face lessons by experts near you
- Online toolbox with exercises to train yourself and build your training
- A community of trainers
The approach
A virtue ethics approach to teaching research integrity
The train-the-trainer program has an aspirational approach, and focuses on what it means to be a good and virtuous researcher. Instead of teaching about rules and norms, the training focuses primarily on promoting reflection on personal attitudes and behaviors. Participants learn how to train others to reflect on concrete cases and moral dilemmas in research, and to use tools that foster reflection in others. This will foster skills that enable trainees to integrate the European Code of Conduct for Research Integrity in their day-to-day professional life.
Blended learning
The VIRT2UE train-the-trainer program combines online learning and participatory exercises. Online materials are designed for individual learning and reflection and provide an introduction to the main research issues and philosophical concepts in research integrity. The face-to-face training develops participants’ teaching skills and provides opportunities for interactive, reflective and case-based group activities. The online and face-to-face courses are complementary. Online preparation is required for the face-to-face exercises, and the online exercises need to be supported by experiences provided in the face-to-face meetings.
Adaptability
To enable contextualized research integrity teaching across Europe, the VIRT2UE train-the-trainer program provides adaptable course material. The exercises represent a toolbox from which trainers can build their own courses tailored to the needs of their students. Trainers are encouraged to adapt the materials and modules, as long as the underlying virtue ethics approach and learner-centeredness are maintained.
The VIRT2UE toolbox is completely open source and is available on The Embassy of Good Science, an online wiki-platform which serves as a hub for all of those committed to ‘good science’. The platform’s wiki functionalities allow for high flexibility because trainers can access the training material directly online, suggest changes, and build new modules and share them with a community of trainers.
Program requirements
By registering for the VIRT2UE train-the-trainer program you have the opportunity to become a certified trainer in the field of research integrity and ethics.
Online course
The interactive online modules provide a basic understanding of relevant concepts, like virtues, values, norms, moral dilemmas and moral conflicts. They also provide an overview of the principles underlying the European Code of Conduct for Research Integrity. It is crucial for participants to complete the online course in advance of the face-to-face training in order to acquire a shared understanding of the program’s core concepts.
Face-to-face training
In the face-to-face training, participants learn and practice five participatory exercises, supervised by a trainer.
Certificate
Program participants receive a certificate when they have completed the online and face-to-face courses and provided evidence of practicing the approach with researchers or colleagues in their own work settings.
