Train-the-Trainer

Member institutions and non-members can avail themselves of the lectures, workshops and Train-the-Trainer programs the OeAWI offers. The educational activities of the ÖAWI cover various topics of research integrity, yet they all aim to promote Good Scientific Practice (GSP).

All formats are offered in German or English.

Didaktics

Didactic Approach

Raising awareness for research integrity and fostering a sense of individual responsibility are top priorities of the OeAWI training programs. In this spirit, the didactic concepts have been developed to fit the working reality of research and at the same time, to build on the knowledge and skills of the participants. OeAWI’s programs rely on evidence-based, didactic methods and aim to stimulate active and reflective engagement with Good Scientific Practice (GSP).
