The training consists of three parts that equal to a total of 9.5+1 teaching hours.

Part I is a self-paced course and starts one week prior to Part II. Part II is a live session, and is scheduled on a specific date and time. Part III of the training, the individual consultation takes place after the live session. The participant has two weeks to schedule the consultation on a preferred date and time.

The first part covers a broad range of advantages that Semantic Technology offers such as the integration of dynamic data from virtually unlimited sources, flexible data modeling, automated knowledge discovery, and data integration with Linked Open Data resources. Participants have one week to cover the video materials and assignments that are required for the live session.

In the live session, the focus is put on practical implementation scenarios via a hands-on demonstration of loading/transforming/querying and linking data, and a showcase of the end product, which is a small Proof-of-Concept project with high-level applications built on top of a graph database. In addition, there is a 30-minute Q&A session at the end. The live session lasts 5 hours in total and is interrupted by short breaks – two 10-minute breaks, and one 20-minute break in the middle.

Finally, the individual consultation (if you have selected to have one upon registration) provides a great opportunity to address questions and challenges that are specific to your project, as well as receive guidance for further implementation and development. The session lasts about 1 hour.
