ABSTRACTO
The FAIR Guidelines attempts to make digital data Findable, Accessible, Interoperable, and Reusable
(FAIR). To prepare FAIR data, a new data science discipline known as data stewardship is emerging and, como
the FAIR Guidelines gain more acceptance, an increase in the demand for data stewards is expected.
Como consecuencia, there is a need to develop curricula to foster professional skills in data stewardship through
effective knowledge communication. There have been a number of initiatives aimed at bridging the gap in
FAIR data management training through both formal and informal programmes. This article describes the
experience of developing a digital initiative for FAIR data management training under the Digital Innovations
and Skills Hub (DISH) proyecto. The FAIR Data Management course offers 6 short on-demand certificate
modules over 12 semanas. The modules are divided into two sets: FAIR data and data science. The core subjects
cover elementary topics in data science, regulatory frameworks, FAIR data management, intermediate to
advanced topics in FAIR Data Point installation, and FAIR data in the management of healthcare and semantic
datos. Each week, participants are required to devote 7–8 hours of self-study to the modules, based on the
resources provided. Once they have satisfied all requirements, students are certified as FAIR data scientists

1. INTRODUCCIÓN
En 2019, the World Economic Forum estimated that, por 2025, an average of 463 exabytes of data (Tweets,
email messages, Facebook posts, WhatsApp messages, clinical data, and music files, etc.) will be created
every day [1]. This data will be in different formats, like images, texto, or audio, and from different domains.
In response, the big data landscape is redefining requirements for data curation infrastructure, which is
evolving to meet the challenges [2]. By employing data analytics, the metadata of curated health data can
provide insights into solving health problems, gearing the industry toward value-based healthcare and
opening doors to remarkable advancements, while reducing costs. Sin embargo, constraints, como el
misrepresentation of data, privacy issues, siloed data, seguridad, and data not being machine-readable, entre
other things, can lead to false inferences being drawn from data analytics. While the FAIR Guidelines [3]
— that data should be Findable, Accessible, Interoperable and Reusable (FAIR) — tend to mitigate some
of these constraints, these principles are foreign to most of the stakeholders whose devices, infrastructures
and research generate such data. De este modo, there is a need to train data stewards using customised training to
equip them with the skills required to implement the FAIR Guidelines. Respectivamente, an appropriate
curriculum needs to be designed, validated and deployed, which is the subject of this article.

Curriculum Development for FAIR Data Stewardship
The design of any curriculum has four critical components that address four questions:
·
·
·
·
Why is instruction initiated?
What needs to be taught to achieve the set intent and objectives?
How can we connect all target learning outcomes?
What has been realised and what other actions need to be taken in relation to the instructional
programme, learners, and teachers?
Worldwide, these components are usually addressed differently depending on the philosophy of the
domain curriculum and model on which a design is based [4]. The goal of curriculum development is to
communicate knowledge effectively to learners. This article explores the frameworks implemented in data
stewardship programmes, towards designing a curriculum for training data stewards, in an effort to equip
them with the relevant skills.
2. LITERATURE REVIEW
2.1 Data Stewardship: Descripción, Roles and Goals
Data stewardship is a concept that is deeply rooted in the sciences and should be considered in any
funded research. It relates to the procedure for gathering, sharing, and analysing data and reflects the values
underpinning fair information practices [5]. Principally, data stewardship involves all activities related to
research data management over the research lifecycle. It has the potential to improve research, as it improves
data management approaches for the collection, almacenamiento, aggregation, and de-identification of data, también
as procedures for data release and use [6]. En 2020, Wildgaard [7] posited that the position of a data steward
is trust-based. Data stewards are responsible for the administration, management and manipulation of data
belonging to researchers or enterprises. Sin embargo, the professionalization of data stewardship can only
progress with improved data steward education opportunities [7]. Por lo tanto, as an activity that is part of
performing creative research, data stewardship encompasses the design of all activities to do with (digital)
data throughout the research project lifecycle, with the aim of optimising the usability, reusability, y
reproducibility of the resulting data [8]. The study and practice of data stewardship is necessary for FAIR
and open research. The European Open Science Cloud for Research Pilot Project [9] explains data
stewardship as the shared responsibility of the professional groups involved in data management: datos
management and curation, data science and analytics, data services engineering and domain research [9].
Competences, skills groups, and organisational roles are defined around typical processes and stages in
data management: planning and design, capture and processing, integration and analysis, evaluation and
presentación, publishing and release, exposure and discovery, governance and assessment, scope and
resources, advice and enabling.
Collins et al. [9] point out that transitioning to FAIR data stewardship requires education programmes for
both data scientists and data stewards. De hecho, both pedagogy and curricula are needed. Some of the

Curriculum Development for FAIR Data Stewardship
popular existing curricular frameworks for digital curation and data science are EDISON [10], EOSCPilot[9]
and DigCurV [11]. These curricular frameworks could be implemented as postgraduate degree programmes
in universities [12] to increase the accessibility of professional data science and stewardship programmes.
Wildgaard et al. [12] explain that the major roles for a data steward are administrator, analyst, developer
and agent of change. Like the roles of the data system developer, the role of the data steward is to optimise
the data through good project management, advise on FAIR Guidelines, create a data plan, facilitate
collaboration and knowledge sharing to raise business intelligence, innovate, and develop procedures and
pautas. These authors also propose three models for data steward education: The first model is for
students with bachelor degrees. This model spans one year for students with programming skills and two
years for students without. The second model consists of PhD students or equivalent from any university
faculty. And the third model is for students with professional studies or technical education and vocational
training. Some of the other training options that could be explored for data stewardships as part of continuing
professional development are: summer schools, on-the-job training, workshops, training-of-trainers, y
online learning [9]. FAIR-themed programmes, like workshops, conference sessions, conferencias, webinars,
hackathons, workshops, visiting scholar programmes and so forth, could also be adopted to enhance FAIR
data stewardship. All of these methods have proven to be effective in training students from all disciplines
on the foundational data skills they need to be professional data stewards. For examples, CODATA-RDA[13]
organised a short course programme in the form of a summer school in 2019 to upskill the research
community for professional FAIR data stewardship. Some of the subjects taught were research data science,
research data management, software and data carpentry, aprendizaje automático, visualisation and computational
infrastructure.
This requires universities and other data-rich facilities to invest in Data Competence Centers (DCCs). En
the FAIR Data Science environment, these are called Data Stewardship Competence Centers (DSCCs),
which are established to embed professional, institution-wide research data stewardship and its related
infrastructure, and which collaborate with the data processors in their institutions to enable better data
management and comply with the FAIR Guidelines (Go-FAIR). Rosenbaum [6] agrees that the majority of
data stewards have good research data management and domain-specific knowledge, but notes that it
would be beneficial to provide pedagogical training to impart the soft skills required to efficiently engage
with researchers and meet their needs [6]. Respectivamente, this article proposes designing a digital skills
curriculum for FAIR data stewardship. The proposed curriculum is divided into three main courses:
computing and information technology, analytics, and FAIR data.
2.2 EDISON Data Science Framework
The EDISON Data Science Framework (EDSF) provides a basis for the definition of data science and
enables the definition of other components related to data science education, training, organisational roles,
and skills management, as well as professional certification. This framework contains five main components:

Data Science Body of Knowledge (DS-BoK) [14]
Data Science Model Curriculum (MC-DS) [15]
Data Science Professional Profiles (DSPP) and occupations taxonomy [16]
Data Science Taxonomy and Scientific Disciplines Classification
The CF-DS provides the overall basis for the EDSF. The core CF-DS competences and skills groups
identified by the EDISON Community [10] as essential for data scientists in different workplaces include:
·
·
·
·
·
Data Science Analytics (DSDA) — which uses suitable statistical methods and predictive analytics
(such as statistical analysis, aprendizaje automático, data mining, and business analytics, etc.) on presented
data to deliver insights and discover new relations.
Data Science Engineering (DSENG) — which uses engineering principles to research, diseño, develop
and implement new instruments and applications for data collection, analysis and management.
Data Management and Governance (DSDM) — which relates to the development and implementation
of a data management approach (using techniques such as software and applications engineering,
data warehousing, big data infrastructure and tools for data stewardship, curation, and preservation)
for data collection, almacenamiento, preservación, and availability for further processing.
Data Science Research Methods and Project Management (DSRMP) — which relates to the research
domain, and Data Science Business Process Management (DSBPM), which creates new understandings
and capabilities by using scientific methods (such as hypothesis, test/artefact, and evaluation) o
similar engineering methods to discover new approaches to create new knowledge and achieve
research or organisational goals.
Data Science Domain Knowledge (DSDK) — which uses the domain knowledge (scientific or business)
to develop relevant data analytics applications and adopt general data science methods for domain
specific data types and presentations, data and process models, organisational roles and relations.
The DS-BoK defines the knowledge areas (EL) required for building a data science curriculum that
supports identified data science competences. The DS-BoK is organised by knowledge area groups (KAG)
that correspond to the CF-DS competence groups. These are Data Science Analytics, Data Science
Ingeniería, Data Management, Research Methods and Project Management, and Business Analytics [14]
The MC-DS is built based on CF-DS and DS-BoK, for which learning outcomes are defined based on
CF-DS competences and learning units are mapped to knowledge units in DS-BoK. Three mastery (o
proficiency) levels are defined for each learning outcome to allow for flexible curricula development and
profiling for different data science professional profiles.
The DSPP is defined as an extension of the European Skills, Competences, Qualifications and Occupations
(ESCO) to the ESCO occupations taxonomy, using the ESCO top classification groups. The definition of
DSPP provides an important instrument for defining effective organisational structures and roles related to

data science positions — and can be also used for building individual career paths and corresponding
competences and skills transferability between organisations and sectors.
The Data Science Taxonomy and Scientific Disciplines Classification serves to maintain consistency and
links between the four core components of EDSF (CF-DS, DS-BoK, MC-DS, and DSPP).
2.3 ESCO Framework and Platform
The ESCO classification identifies and categorises skills, competences, qualifications and occupations
relevant for the European Union labour market, education and training. It systematically shows the
relationships between the different concepts [17]. The ESCO Data Science Professional Profiles (DSPP)
occupation hierarchy is: managers, professionals, technicians, and associate professionals, and clerical
support workers. The ESCO DSPP taxonomy can be extended to situations where proposed profile
competences and organisational roles are similar to CEN Workshop Agreement (CWA) 16458 ICT profile
definitions, such as to:

Cifra 1 illustrates the existing ESCO hierarchy and the proposed new data science classification groups
and corresponding new data science related profiles. The table in this figure shows competence groups
relevant to each profile by indicating competence relevance from 0 a 5 (0 — not relevant, 5 — very
important). The profile definitions for specific roles for DSP01–DSP22 are detailed on the EDISON
Community website [16]. Por ejemplo, the profile for data steward is DSP10 under the hierarchy of data
science technology professionals. Mapping ‘data steward’ with CF-DS competences and skills groups, el
relevance level with DSDA, DSENG, DSRM and DSDK is 3. Data steward is most relevant to DSDM. Datos
steward is well mapped with the CF-DS competency groups with an average value of 3.

Curriculum Development for FAIR Data Stewardship
NUFFIC (the Dutch organisation for internationalisation in education) Digital Innovations and Skills Hub
(DISH) is a distance education programme sponsored by the Dutch Ministry of Foreign Affairs under the
Orange Knowledge Program in conjunction with 12 partners from different countries in East Africa. El
project targets learners with low opportunities, such as marginalised youth, including refugees and displaced
persons from the Tigray region (Ethiopia), Garowe and Mogadishu (Somalia), Kassala and Khartoum (Sudan),
Wau and Juba (South Sudan), and other conflict affected areas from East African region.
3.1 Course Curriculum: Topics and Description
Given the demography of the targeted learners, the training curriculum for this data stewardship
specialisation programme is designed with the assumption that the students have little or no prior computer
science skills. De este modo, the training curriculum starts from a beginner’s perspective and is divided into three
courses of five to seven modules, with each course being a prerequisite for the next. The course details are
given in Tables 2–4.

The emergence of the Internet as
a global telecommunications
network has had a huge impact
on how we view and apply data
protection and regulations.
Before the massive expansion of
the Internet, data was of minor
interest and did not generate
signifi cant global interest.
This module provides participants
with an understanding of what a
regulatory framework is and what
it is used for. Learners will
understand general data protec-
tion principles, national data
regulations, and the basics of
FAIR Guidelines, as well as be
able to explain why we need
FAIR Guidelines and the benefi ts
for their country.

This module describes FAIR Data
Points (FDPs), their objectives
and elements. The main purpose
of this module is to illustrate how
an FDP can be deployed on a
local machine and provide
detailed steps for a successful
installation. It also aims to
explain how to publish machine-
actionable (meta)data to an FDP.
Another objective of this module
is to illustrate how non-FAIR data
can be assigned machine-
readable metadata to enable
them to be discoverable by
individuals and machines. En
addition, leaners will be taught
how to work with Open Refi ne
and how to create RDF triplets.
Learners will be presented with a
simulated cancer dataset shown
how to FAIRify it by building a
semantic data model from the
conjunto de datos.
The module introduces learners
to semantic web and linked data,
and shows them how to use
eCRF and CEDAR to create and
explore metadata and as a FAIR
tool.

In this module students will learn
the importance of FAIR Guide-
lines in healthcare research
including how FAIR Guidelines
can facilitate knowledge
discovery from health data and
how linked health data drives
investigación, better use and learning
from data, and contributions to
patient care.

on-the-job training where
students can gain experience and
knowledge and learn how to
apply their skills.
3.2 Mode and Duration
This programme will span 36 semanas (12 weeks per course) with a total of 3 courses: Computer Science
I (CS1), Computer Science II (CS2) and FAIR Management Principles (CS3). The core topics that pertain to
data stewardship will be Introduction to Data Science I and II, Regulatory Framework, FAIR: Datos
Management, Data Point Installation, and Data for Health and Semantic Data.
The weekly activities summary for each course is as follows:
• Week 1 — Registration and Orientation
• Weeks 2 a 11 — Learning Activities and Interaction
• Week 12 — Examination
Considering the possible locality of the target participants and the limited infrastructure available in such
lugares, the distance education model will take a blended learning approach, in which online learning is
combined with face-to-face interaction at partner universities. Each participant is expected to devote a
minimum of 12 hours a week, of which 4 hours is for self-study of the provided learning resources, 4 horas
for online activities and interactions, y 4 hours for assessments and assignments.
3.3 Expected Learning Outcomes, Activities and Assessments
In addition to registration in week 1, learners are mandated to participate in two short modules: Peace
Building and Conflict Resolution (to expose them to the skills needed to coexist and resolve conflicts in

Curriculum Development for FAIR Data Stewardship
order to maintain peace in their communities) and Trauma and Mental Health (to help them to cope with
the violence and trauma that they might have experienced in times past). To enable them to access the
enormous opportunities inherent in the IT world, the modules on Digital Technologies, Computer Networks,
IT Service Management, and Project Management will be designed to teach a wide range of skills on digital
tecnología, contents creation, software installation, basic cyber security, IT productivity tools, hardware
coupling and troubleshooting, maintenance of local area networks, and other relevant topics. The learners
will be facilitated via a learning management system using activities such as video conferencing, chats,
online forums and so forth for interaction between teachers and learners and also for peer-to-peer
comunicación. Practical sessions will be organised for students to demonstrate the skills acquired. Quizzes
and assignments will also be given to gauge outcomes and these will be graded. It is expected that the
course will not only qualify learners for IT-related jobs, but that they will also be capacitated to perform
exceedingly well in other areas using the skills acquired.
The Computer Science Level 2 (CS2) modules were developed to teach the learners intermediate skills
such as computer programming with Python, Introduction to Data Science, Business Intelligence, Digital
Marketing, Front End Web Development with Angular, Docker and React (Web), and React (Native).
Learners are expected to be able to write Python programs, as this is essential for data science. The Data
Science and Business Intelligence modules will groom learners in the world of machine learning, datos
analytics and business analytics. Tech skills, which can provide a career path, are also taught. Marketable
skills will be taught, such as skills in using digital marketing concepts to manage the digital platforms of
business organisations and create digital advertising campaigns for small and medium scale businesses;
skills in JavaScript to teach front end web development; and skills in Angular, Docker, and React to expose
learners to software engineering. Similar activities of facilitation, engagement, practical and assessment as
in CS1 will be introduced to teach, assess and encourage learners.
Computer Science Level 3 (CS3) modules are an extension of Computer Science Level 2 (CS2). Learners
will be exposed to statistical thinking, supervised and unsupervised learning, and regression. Otro
interesting topic in FAIR Data is called FAIR Data Trains. The students will be exposed to FAIR Data for
Salud, which explores how linked health data drives research, better use and learning from data, y
further contributions to patient care. Además, learners will be taught the FAIR Guidelines for data
management as well as FAIR Data Point installation, Docker installation, the creation of machine-readable
metadata, catalogues, conjuntos de datos, and distribution. Students will also be shown how to FAIRify existing
datasets using linked data and semantics modelling. The main objective of the course at this level is to
understand the role of a data scientist in the industry and become acquainted with different data presentation
formats, understand basic statistical thinking, understand machine learning techniques (such as supervised
and unsupervised learning), understand basic concepts such as (sensitive) personal data and FAIR Guidelines,
apply the FAIR Guidelines, know what data management and a data management plan (DMP) son, saber
the content elements that make up a DMP, be able to develop a FAIR DMP, and learn tools and techniques
for the FAIRification of data.

Curriculum Development for FAIR Data Stewardship
4. CONCLUSION AND FURTHER DEVELOPMENTS
This article reviewed existing curriculum, such as the EDISON framework, for Data Science Professionals.
The presented profiles are defined based on the ESCO taxonomy and include the following groups: managers
(DSP01–DSP03), professionals (DSP04–DSP09), professional data management/handling (DSP10–DSP13),
professional (database) technical (DSP14–DSP16), professional technicians (DSP17–DSP19), and support
and clerical workers (DSP20–DSP22). This framework defines data steward relevance and profile as DSP10.
It is anticipated that all educational requirements of a data steward were met in the curriculum provided,
which blends the skills involved in data stewardship and the FAIR Guidelines. A student that has satisfied
all requirements will be certified as a FAIR data scientist and will be able to serve as both a FAIR data
steward and analyst. In-depth and focused curricula development with diverse participants will build a core
of FAIR data scientists. This will encourage the rapid adoption of FAIR Guidelines for data for research and
desarrollo.
