All,
(apologies for cross-posting)
If you represent a repository that stores Earth, space, or environmental science related data and would be interested in the CoreTrustSeal certification, consider adding your name to the cohort described below and participating in the webinars for preparing your certification submission package.
Feel free to share this with your communities. There is no risk nor requirement to be included in the cohort. Completion of a certification submission package is not required, though we hope this opportunity will make it easier and more likely for success.
From Rebecca Koskela,
A cohort of data repositories is being assembled to apply for CoreTrustSeal certification as part of the American Geophysical Union Coalition Enabling FAIR Data Project. CoreTrustSeal certification demonstrates to a repository’s users and funders that they have been evaluated by an independent authority and endorsed for their trustworthiness.
We are planning a series of webinars in the first part of October to provide more information on CoreTrustSeal and the certification process. The webinars will be recorded and made available for those unable to attend.
If you are interested in becoming a member of this cohort, please send email to Rebecca Koskela (***@***.***). Also, please pass this on to anyone you think would be interested in joining the cohort.
Regards,
Rebecca
