|Guide Goal=This guide provides practical guidance on how to organise and experience a blended learning train-the trainer program in research integrity. This training builds on a virtue-based approach to research integrity and aims to support the adoption of the principles and practices outlined in the European Code of Conduct for Research Integrity (ECoC). The program is composed of offline and online modules. While online materials are designed for individual learning and reflection, the face-to-face sessions offer opportunities for interactive, reflective and problem-solving group activities.

|Guide Goal=The VIRT<sup>2</sup>UE Train the Trainer program addresses researchers and educators from different disciplines who want to become trainers in Research Integrity. By taking this blended learning training, participants have the chance to 1) learn about the main Research Integrity issues, 2) reflect on them within the context of the European Code of Conduct for Research Integrity (ECoC) and 3) develop skills to foster understanding and internalization of the principles and practices of good science as promoted by the ECoC'''. '''The training takes a virtue-based approach and supports participants in reflecting on their understanding of, and own positions towards Research Integrity. In line with this, a strong focus is put on fostering reflecting on personal cases and experiences with the intention of building strong connections between theory and practice.

This blended learning training program will enable you to develop knowledge of the main issues and concepts of research integrity and support you in developing the didactical competencies necessary to conduct a train-the-trainer course on research integrity. The training takes a virtue based approach and aims at cultivating intrinsic motivations to engage in good research practices, and providing the skills and knowledge to foster the same attitude in others. At the same time, the training aims at ‘passing the expertise’ and to support you in developing an attitude and didactical competencies of a trainer who will train others.

Trainers are encouraged to adapt materials in order to make them more suitable for the context in which they will offer their training. This supports contextualised teaching across different countries and disciplines and promotes the internalisation of the practices and principles of the ECoC.

The VIRT²UE train-the-trainer program combines online and face-to-face components. 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.

The training materials represent a toolbox from which trainers can build their own courses tailored to the needs of their trainees. Trainers are encouraged to adapt materials in order to make them more suitable for the context in which they will offer their training. This supports contextualised teaching across different countries and disciplines and promotes the internalisation of the practices and principles of the ECoC.
