In this workshop, you will learn about the benefits and components of DMPs. The goal is for you to identify the individual need for action and learn to actively plan and document RDM in your research projects – to keep track of your digital data and continue to acquire third-party funding successfully. The programme is completed by an overview of C³RDM's support services.

Prerequisites: RDM basics (e.g., via our workshop "Research Data Management (RDM) – a practice-oriented introduction" or our e-learning).

Seminar contents:
• Function and components of data management plans (DMPs)
• DMP templates, tools, and support services
• Roles and responsibilities in RDM
• Budgeting for RDM
• Requirements of different funding programmes

The major objective of the workshop “Good Scientific Practice” is to know and understand the basic rules and values of the responsible conduct of research in all its steps, according to local, national and international regulations and guidelines.

The participants will explore the differences and grey areas between good scientific practice, questionable research practice and scientific misconduct. They will learn how misconduct can be recognized and prevented and how it should be addressed and dealt with in case it occurs, and what damage it can cause if handled improperly.

In addition, they will learn to develop appropriate solutions to difficult situations in the process of science and receive advice on how to protect their own scientific work. They are encouraged to speak with their colleagues and institutions about problems and challenges.

The content of the workshop follows the curriculum “Good Scientific Practice” which was commissioned by and developed in cooperation with the German Research Ombudsman, an independent board of the Deutsche Forschungsgemeinschaft (DFG).

Seminar contents:

• Definitions of good scientific practice and scientific misconduct
• Degrees and extent of scientific misconduct
• Data management
• Authorship and the process of publication
• Mentoring and supervision
• Conflict management: how to deal with scientific misconduct
• Local, national and international guidelines and regulations

Please note: Our training programme is designed for the interaction of the participants. Comparable to face-to-face seminars, we ask you to turn on your camera during online events for an exchange at eye level.

A good presentation begins with good preparation. You will work on exercises that help you understand the best techniques in developing the right presentation by answering questions like: Who will be present? Where will I give my talk? How can I most effectively present my research material?
Body language is an aspect that is covered in any presentation workshop but under these special circumstances, we will cover effectively and efficiently using an online platform to give top-notch presentations. Your voices will play a particularly critical role here. Hence, in advance you will be asked to prepare a presentation of a maximum of five slides about your current research for a non-expert scientific audience.

Seminar contents:
• Finding out about the situation
• Body language
• Understanding interests of an audience
• Creating better slides
• Master discussions

Der soziale Hintergrund spielt im deutschen Hochschulsystem eine wichtige
Rolle und hat auch einen Einfluss auf die Entscheidung für oder gegen eine Promotion. Familiäre Erwartungen und die persönliche Sozialisation prägen unsere Entscheidungen und haben damit ebenfalls Einfluss auf unsere Promotion. Häufig sind uns diese Zusammenhänge jedoch gar nicht präsent, sondern wirken vielmehr versteckt und unbewusst. Gemeinsam soll in diesem Workshop darüber reflektiert werden – sowohl im positiven Sinne als auch vielleicht als Stolperstein. Insbesondere Doktorand*innen, die ihre eigene Herkunft als Belastung empfinden, sollen Strategien mitgegeben werden, um positive Aspekte in den Vordergrund zu rücken.

Seminarinhalte:
• Reflektion des Zusammenhangs zwischen der eigenen Herkunft und der Promotion
• Erarbeitung von Strategien, um mit Erwartungen des eigenen sozialen Umfelds bzw. den eigenen Erwartungen an das soziale Umfeld umzugehen, auch mit den sich daraus ergebenden Konflikten

The first part of this workshop focuses on the application documents. In exercises you will reflect your individual achievements so far and learn how to convincingly present them in the CV as the center-piece of every application. By analysing real job ads, you will practise how to write cover letters that create the desire to meet the author. You will get advice on how your determination for a specific career path can be reflected in your CV and cover letter and what other application documents to include considering differences between jobs in academia and industry.
The focus of the second part lies on job interviews and covers questions such as how to react upon the invitation, how to prepare for the interview, the interview itself and how to deal with it afterwards. Differences between real and virtual interviews will be covered. After preparatory exercises, you will practise giving examples of skills and abilities. You will be primed for specific situations when confronted with awkward questions or unexpected challenges and practise these in training sequences.
In individual online live coaching sessions, you can discuss individual questions with your trainer. This may include the check of application documents (1 CV and 1 motivational letter) for a specific job ad. All documents should be handed in a week prior to the individually scheduled appointments. These appointments should take place within 2 months after the workshop.

Contents:
• Checking and optimising application documents (CV, cover letter, etc.)
• Preparation for in person and virtual interviews
• Preparatory exercises and training sequences (skills, abibilities, and challenging situations)
• Individual coaching for one specific application process

Please note: Our training programme is designed for the interaction of the participants. Comparable to face-to-face seminars, we ask you to turn on your camera during online events for an exchange at eye level.

The session includes useful information and a creative workshop. Participants will leave the session with a clearly articulated business idea that solves a real-world problem, and is ready to be developed further into a profitable business model.

Content

As young scientists you often take on first leadership tasks after graduating with a PhD or already supervise students and/or non-academic staff during your doctoral phase. In order to successfully manage initial leadership situations and at the same time advance your own doctorate, solid knowledge of central leadership instruments and practical experience are helpful to fulfil the tasks and to shape your new role.
The workshop "Leadership Starter Kit" will support you in mastering these first leadership steps. You will learn and experience in which areas your own leadership skills are already developed, and you will deepen your skills and knowledge in areas in which you have little or no experience.
The techniques introduced in this workshop can be used in a variety of contexts ranging from leading a team on a day-to-day basis to enhancing the team’s long-term productivity. Particular emphasis is placed upon enabling prospective leaders to become aware of key dynamics within a team and to adjust leadership strategies accordingly.

Seminar contents:
• Leadership practice: Reflection on previous experience - Leadership tasks / tools - Psychology of leadership
• Successful leadership: Communication and conflict resolution - Creating incentives & motivation - Conducting talks - Dealing with conflictive issues
• Delegation, assignment, supervision: - Setting goals - Evaluate and control by means of transparent criteria.

Academic tasks and administration, tutoring and teaching, partner projects… and family first of all! You can feel the stress building up even while reading this. Being asked to do everything at once and straight away is an integral part of daily life in academia. In this challenging context stress-resilience is essential to keep a healthy balance and to deal successfully with the multitude of roles and demands.
This workshop offers you the welcome opportunity to calmly reflect about the main sources of pressure and strain that you encounter and to identify strategies to deal with them. You learn about triggers and consequences of stress and how your personal resilience can be strengthened. The central goal is that you get concrete impulses and tools that support you in keeping a good balance between productivity and self-care.

Seminar contents:
• Resilience as anti-stress competence
• Stressors in academia
• Mechanisms of stress emergence and consequences of stress
• 3 pillars of stress-resilience
• Transfer: Personal opportunities for increasing resilience and preventing stress

The "Healthy Hour" will continue in 2023 with one lecture a month, alternating between the prevention trainer and the psychologist from the company medical service of the UoC. The successful format is characterized by an appealing mix of knowledge transfer and practical components and is dedicated to health-related topics around the workplace. It addresses both the symptoms of the physical strain of a desk job and the psychosocial aspects of self-care or collegial interaction.

The offer is open for all employees and can be attended during working hours. It takes place in German.

In addition to the offers for doctoral students listed here, many other continuing education courses at the University of Cologne are open to you. At fortbildung.uni-koeln.de you can find the right offer using the keyword search, sorted by topic or by target group. For example, from the following areas:

• Language courses
• IT
• Media library

In collaboration with Vitae, EUniWell offers all researchers within the collaboration access to its Researcher Development Framework (RDF).

The RDF Planner is an online competency management application specifically designed for the personal and professional development of researchers. With this tool, you can explore the various disciplines related to research, set personal development goals, and improve your competencies in each area by setting goals, completing activities, and creating an evidence-based portfolio of your accomplishments.
