Let’s look back at our 2023 academy highlights!
In 2023, the data.europa academy [https://data.europa.eu/en/academy/]
curated over 20 dynamic webinars, fostering engagement among
researchers, students, data providers, and organisations. Our sessions
covered  a wide variety of topics, from automatic publishing
[https://data.europa.eu/sites/default/files/course/20230120_data.europa.eu_webinar_automatic%20data%20publishing.pdf]
to the introduction of data spaces
[https://data.europa.eu/en/academy/moving-towards-data-spaces]. 

The academy focuses on sharing best practices, ensuring all countries
reap the benefits of data.europa.eu  in using, finding, and
publishing datasets. A notable mention is the lesson ‘Measuring the
impact of open data
[https://data.europa.eu/en/academy/measuring-open-data-impact-europe]’,
enriched by the comprehensive  Open Data Maturity webinar series.
During these webinars, each session focused on a single dimension,
policy, impact, portal and quality. Countries performing well in the
assessment or showing significant improvements were invited to share
best practices, inspiring others to continue their journey towards
data maturity. Further valuable insights came from the Stories from
the Use Case Observatory
[https://data.europa.eu/en/academy/stories-use-case-observatory],
showcasing the real-life impact by observing how open data is used by
different organisations.

This year, our agenda promises a series of highly relevant trainings!
Expect specialised webinars delving into the legal side of datasets,
and additional sessions focusing on best practices, data spaces, open
data maturity and use cases. Additionally, following the success of
our first workshop  dedicated to students
[https://data.europa.eu/en/news-events/events/how-use-open-data-your-research],
we plan to organise more workshops this year. We kick-off the year
with interesting  panel discussions on the increasing role of
Artificial Intelligence in data processing and generation, scheduled
for January 19th, January 26th and February 2nd. Register to our first
session promptly to join the discussion!
