Apologies for cross posting

FOSTER proudly announces that, as of today, the Open Access and Open Science communities will benefit two-fold from our freshly designed new web presence<http://www.fosteropenscience.eu/>. First off: the renewed FOSTER project website now features various enhancements, most notably a comprehensive news section with an account of the many contributions the project partners made throughout the last months to several events and conferences. One of the main events was a series of workshops delivered by FOSTER speakers to EU project officers in Brussels on Open Access Requirements to publications and research data in Horizon. See the video recording and slides<http://www.fosteropenscience.eu/project/index.php?option=com_content&view=article&id=35:presentations&catid=9:download&Itemid=107> of all the presentations.

The second addition to our web presence is a preview of the FOSTER training portal<http://wwwt.fosteropenscience.eu> which has started to collect all information around FOSTER funded and (co-) organized training events. See our full training programme throughout the second half of 2014 with links to the training organizations and information on how to register for your favorite course. Looking for a specific training topic? Eight main areas cover courses on Open Access, Open Data and Open Science as well as on Research Data Management, Funder compliance and related fields including specific subjects like metrics and copyright issues. The portal will be enriched over the next weeks with content that each of these courses delivers. Look forward to discovering a wealth of material provided for the European research community!
