Program overview

The OLS Nebula program is a comprehensive 6-week open science training program. The program integrates practical training with individual coaching, supporting participants to apply open science principles, skills, and tools in their work.

Who is this training for?

The Nebula program is designed for participants at any career stage: researchers, research-supporting staff, and people who want to integrate best practices for open and reproducible research in new or ongoing projects. It is of particular interest to individuals or teams seeking to develop or improve an Open Science strategy or Data Management plan for their research.

Training format and content

The program covers NASA's Open Science 101 Curriculum. Each week, we explore one open science module, with expert speakers from different scientific domains guiding hands-on learning. Synchronous training sessions take place on Zoom, twice a week. The sessions are delivered in English. Individual participants or teams meet with an expert for personalized feedback on their work.

Participants will share a short presentation on their work as a graduation requirement. Upon graduation, participants receive a digital badge certifying their completion of NASA’s Open Science 101 curriculum.

The expected time commitment for this training is 4 h per week.

Key dates

We have no sessions planned at the moment.
