| - | Publication date: 6 April 2023 \\ | ||
| - | \\ | ||
| - | The conference **Open Up Digital Editions** will take place on January 25 and 26, 2024 in Zurich and will be hosted by the Center for Digital Editions (UZH) and the Research and Infrastructure Support unit RISE (University of Basel). | ||
| - | \\ | ||
| - | |||
| - | The conference will focus on the use and re-use of digital editions and edition data. With the growing number of digital editions and the continuous availability of new edition data, issues of use and re-use are increasingly coming to the fore. However, many questions remain open and unresolved: //Do editions meet the research needs? Which standards should future projects adopt? How do digital editions remain accessible after the end of the project? How can edition projects be linked with each other?// | ||

The workshop addresses a public of researchers in interactional linguistics and neighbouring fields and, more generally, of researchers in the humanities who are interested in the topic of open data. It can be attended on site and online via Zoom. On site participants are invited to a small networking reception after the workshop. Please register for participation by April 24th, 2023 (see the links below). | ||

| - | ====== Linguists in tech: closing the skills gap ====== | ||
| - | Publication date: 21 February 2023 \\ | ||
| - | \\ | ||
| - | \\ | ||
| - | This workshop is the second Swiss multiplier event of the UPSKILLS project. It will take place at the **University of Geneva** on **21-22 April 2023**. | ||
| - | \\ | ||
| - | \\ | ||
| - | Its goal is to bring together members of academia and companies across Switzerland to work on improving employability of language and linguistics students. Why is this necessary? Because language and linguistics students are generally excluded from the job market working with language data due to the fact that the relevant university curricula do not provide adequate training in a narrow range of technical domains. | ||
| - | \\ | ||
| - | \\ | ||
| - | The //Linguists in tech: closing the skills gap// workshop will present the needs analyses that led to the planification and the design of a repository of didactic material targeting at bridging the mismatch between what the job market needs and what is currently offered to language and linguistics students. The event will also revolve around several social moments to favour informal exchanges between guests from the industry and the academic community. | ||

The idea is to have a full day event, whose objective are to try to learn about **concrete infrastructure proposals** and to exchange on how we can **coordinate** and **create synergies** between different concrete projects. So, in addition to keynote speakers, there will also be slots for different projects presentations. | ||
