Getting Practical With The FAIR Principles: Making Metadata FAIR

Event 2: Making Metadata FAIR
June 12-13, 2023, 10:00 A.M.-2:00 P.M. EST

This second event in the “Getting Practical With The FAIR Principles” series will build on foundational familiarity with FAIR by providing participants with practical experience tackling a key challenge in FAIR implementation, creating FAIR metadata. Following an introduction to concrete strategies and tools, participants will collaborate on a set of guided exercises to generate FAIR metadata based on an example dataset. Through this hands-on approach, participants will gain experience addressing real-world social and technical challenges to make metadata FAIR. participants will leave the workshop with a better understanding of how FAIR works in practice, the skills needed to implement FAIR, and how to make FAIR a more routine aspect of their data management and/or stewardship practices.

Following the workshop, participants will be able to:

• Define the characteristics of FAIR metadata
• Describe the steps required to make metadata FAIR
• Describe social and technical challenges related to creating FAIR metadata and strategies and tools that can help address them
• Interact successfully with one or more technical tools for creating FAIR metadata
