While we’d love for you to attend, we recognize that it might not be feasible for everyone due to time zones and prior commitments. As such, the webinar will be recorded.

Hello @research_community - Thank you to everyone who shared their availability for this training. We’ll be hosting a workshop featuring a speaker from Creative Commons on Monday, 22 April at 11am ET. We’d love for you all to attend!

This 90-minute workshop is intended to help researchers learn about data licensing, copyright, and best practices to ensure that you are getting (and providing) credit for resources created by/for the community, or elsewhere in your work.

By the end of the workshop, participants will have an understanding of the basic principles of copyright, how it works, and where it applies. Participants will be able to describe the benefits of open licensing and the basics of how Creative Commons licenses work, have a deeper understanding of how research outputs interact with copyright and open licensing, and know where to find additional information and resources.

Please let us know if you’d like to attend by responding to the following poll and let us know if you have any questions or comments about the training by responding to this post! We will send a calendar invite to those interested.

Here is the Zoom link for the event.

I would like to attend this training.

Great! When I use Github, I always wonder what are the differences and which to choose.

It would be great to be more knowledgeable. Thank you for the opportunity!

I agree with @hirotaka - would be interesting to talk about the differences between Creative Commons and MIT and other licensing types and their applications. I also tend to think of this when setting up a GitHub repo.
