It is building upon the strong expertise in digital literacy training of its members as well as on its wide network of collaborations and other initiatives aimed at professionalizing Life Sciences data management, processing and analysis skills. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Standardization and state- of-the-art technological implementation will reinforce the training and outreach activities plan. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The program builds on short dedicated remote workshops as well as training recordings and will generate specific training material as Open Educational Resources which will be made available in a dedicated web platform. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The consortium structure and high connectivity to relevant networks will foster project sustainability and efficient knowledge delivery to the stakeholders throughout the entire duration of the project and beyond, all this under a well defined and transparent management system.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>RIcapacity is involved in BioNT to increase dissemination and communication activities towards industry (incl.
