IT Service Management is a discipline that helps provide services with a focus on customer needs and in a professional manner. It is widely used in the commercial and public sectors to manage IT services of all types, but current solutions are very heavyweight with high barriers to entry.

FitSM is an open, lightweight standard for professionally managing services. It brings order and traceability to a complex area and provides simple, practical support in getting started with ITSM. FitSM training and certification provide crucial help in delivering services and improving their management. It provides a common conceptual and process model, sets out straightforward and realistic requirements and links them to supporting materials.

The training is co-located with the EOSC-Nordic project kickoff meeting taking place on 2-3 September 2019, ensuring no overlap with the kickoff meeting programme.

This one-day (2x half day) Foundation level course provides an agnostic introduction to the basic IT service management concepts and terms, outlines the purpose and structure of FitSM standards and their relationship to other standards, and details the formal requirements defined within it.

The International EISCAT Radar School is a training course for new users of incoherent scatter radars at any stage of their research career.
The school will be held at the nature resort Pikku-Syöte, about an hour and a half east of the city of Oulu during the week immediately preceeding the 19th International EISCAT Symposium, which will be held jointly with the 46th Annual European Meeting on Atmospheric Studies by Optical Methods (46AM).

HADDOCK is one of the earlier developed protein-protein docking tools contributed by the Computational Structural Biology group / NMR Research Group of Utrecht University that was led by Prof. Bonvin. HADDOCK can integrate information derived from biochemical, biophysical or bioinformatics methods to enhance sampling, scoring, or both. The information that can be integrated is quite diverse: among others interface restraints from NMR, mutagenesis experiments, or bioinformatics predictions and, recently, cryo-electron microscopy experiments.

Disaster Mitigation Working Group will host a one-day workshop aiming to:

1. Review the collaboration model and case study status
2. Discuss the collaboration with Agriculture Working Group
3. Future training events by UND projects (Asi@Connect funded project) and other activities
4. Extend the APAN-EGI collaboration framework and regional collaborations
