About this event
This workshop is for you if you are a data steward or a research data professional from any discipline and if you want to be able to:
- clearly define and communicate your role;
- analyse your stakeholder network and set goals collaboratively;
- evaluate the impact of planned changes and create an action plan;
- apply stress management techniques and learn how to stay healthy and motivated;
- network with colleagues and build a support network.
This workshop fills a thematic gap in training currently available to research data professionals and focuses on developing change agents who can implement effectively FAIR data and Open Science principles in their organizations. Participants will explore essential competencies for their roles, engage with self-marketing strategies, and develop skills in communication, strategy development, and change management. The agenda includes professional growth techniques, resilience building, stakeholder analysis, and goal setting. This workshop is designed to align with relevant European initiatives (e.g. Minimal Viable Skillset for Data Stewards) as well as with relevant Research Data Alliance outputs on professionalising data stewardship .
Refund policy

VAT & Invoicing – Please Read Before Selecting Your Ticket
This training is subject to EU VAT rules.
We offer two ticket types, depending on your location and VAT status:
🔹 Non-Belgian organizations – Price excl. VAT
Select this ticket only if you are either:
- A company/organization/freelancer established in the EU (but outside Belgium) and can provide a valid VAT number, or
- A company/organization/freelancer based outside the EU (e.g. UK, US, etc.).
In these cases, no VAT will be charged: the reverse charge mechanism applies for EU organizations with a valid VAT number, and services to non-EU businesses are outside the scope of EU VAT.
If you don’t have a valid VAT number, please select the ticket inclusive VAT.
🔹Belgian organizations & ALL individuals – Price incl. 21% VAT
Select this ticket if you are:
- A company/organization/freelancer based in Belgium, or
- A private individual participant based in any country, or
- A company/organization/freelancer based outside Belgium without a valid VAT number.
Note: For private individuals from other EU countries, the VAT rate may differ from the Belgian rate. Due to the different VAT approaches in different countries, we might need to contact you after registration to clarify the correct VAT treatment and, if necessary, adjust your invoice.
All participants will receive an official VAT invoice after registration based on the information provided.
If you’re unsure which ticket applies to you, please contact us at eu.financial.officer@rda-foundation.org before completing your registration.
