Are you a graduate student looking to establish your research identity?

Open Researcher and Contributor Identifier (ORCID) is a persistent identifier that points to an individual researcher, helping to reduce the administrative burden associated with manually managing a scholarly profile.

This workshop, a combination of presentation and question & answer period, will introduce research IDs and how to create one using ORCID, as well as how to increase an ORCIDs credibility by affiliating the record to an institution, such as the University of Waterloo.

By the end of this workshop, participants will:

• Understand what a researcher ID is
• Know how to generate a researcher ID using ORCID
• Understand how ORCID is used in the grant submission and publishing process
• Understand how ORCID fits into the culture of open science

This in-person workshop has limited capacity; please register to reserve your seat. If you have accommodation requests or questions, reach out to Mary Ochana (maochana@uwaterloo.ca) with your needs.
