CERIF, the Common European Research Information Format, is a standard data model for CRIS and for interoperability. The euroCRIS community has been developing it for many years. So the CERIF Tutorial aims at providing an overview of the standard especially designed for new euroCRIS members and for the local community. The session will be conducted, as usual, by Brigitte Joerg.
