We invite you to participate in a series of training sessions designed to introduce and deepen your knowledge of the CLARIN-CH ecosystem and its resources for language data research. Covering topics such as corpus querying, media data collection, multimodal data modeling, and data sharing, these sessions will provide hands-on insights into key tools and methodologies that may be useful for researchers working with language data.
The development of the sessions was supported by the projects Upgrading the linguistic ORD-ecosystem (UpLORD) and Moving towards a national FAIR-compliant ecosystem of Federated Infrastructure for Language Data (FAIR-FI-LD), co-funded through the swissuniversities’ Open Science I program. The content of the sessions is designed as Open Education Resources and will be published on the CLARIN-CH Zenodo Community.
The online training series is a collaborative effort of:
