Guidelines for research institutions on adequate education and skills training
What is this about?
This guideline offers recommendations that can help research institutions provide researchers with adequate education and skills building opportunities.
Why is this important?
Ensuring that researchers are competent and versatile in their work will help them perform research of higher quality and enable them to build the skills necessary to deal with dilemmas and career uncertainty.
Research institutions can help foster research integrity and responsible research practices by providing researchers with healthy, collaborative, positive, inclusive, and enriching work environments.For whom is this important?

What are the best practices?
Given the broad diversity that exists among research institutions, it is possible that some recommendations are not applicable in all research settings. For this reason, the guidelines should not be seen as a ‘one-size-fits-all’, but rather as tools that can be used flexibly and adapted to meet institutions’ specific needs.
