The scientific CV and its visibility: formats, management and dissemination on the Internet

DESCRIPTION

This course emerges as a response to the great diversification of information sources that arise for the management and monitoring of the researcher’s Curriculum Vitae. On the one hand, the course aims to provide the researcher with the necessary knowledge and skills to quickly prepare a CV in CVA and CVN formats and in the interaction between different databases for the exchange of curricular information. We also introduce certain bibliometric indicators that are useful when defending our scientific CV. We then focus on how to make our scientific CV visible and position it on the internet; we concentrate especially on how to design a scientific CV website and on the most appropriate digital platforms (ORCID, ResearcherID, ResearchGate or Google Scholar) to disseminate our scientific production.
