Training for High-Impact Resilience, Innovation, Versatility, and Excellence

THRIVE (Training for High-Impact Resilience, Innovation, Versatility, and Excellence) responds to the urgent need for skilled, mobile, and future-ready technical staff in Research Infrastructures (RIs). As the operational and technological complexity of RIs increases, THRIVE provides a structured, sustainable framework for continuous professional development of RI staff through harmonized training, mentoring, and mobility schemes. THRIVE significantly supports the excellence and long-term sustainability of Euro-BioImaging ERIC and the European imaging community. Through its focus on combined mentoring and staff mobility, THRIVE reinforces collaboration and innovation across the Euro-BioImaging Nodes, increasing skill and knowledge sharing, and enhancing the connectedness of the RI’s technical workforce. The recognition and career development of RI staff will be underpinned by a defined career path model and a core competencies framework for imaging RI staff. Through a training curriculum focused on digital skills, AI, green practices, and operational skills, THRIVE addresses common RI challenges and fosters cross-domain expertise. Training and mobility schemes co-developed with industry ensure alignment with emerging technology and innovation needs, increasing the competitiveness and capacity for innovation of the European imaging community. A central training portal unites the THRIVE training modules with community-developed resources and enhances accessibility of imaging technology and RI operations training. Curating training resources into career-path-specific learning pathways aligns training standards across the RI and promotes recognition of skills across borders and domains. By investing in human capital at the RI – from pre-RI and early career staff to facility leadership – THRIVE directly contributes to the sustainability, capability, and optimisation of the European RI landscape, in full alignment with INFRADEV priorities.
