Complete this track if you sponsor access, supervise researchers, maintain lab systems, or approve exceptions to normal onboarding policy.
Prerequisites#
- IT and Research Safety Core
- Familiarity with the tracks used by people you supervise
Competencies#
You can:
- assign an information owner and classify project data;
- confirm GitHub, NAS, Euler, software, and guest-account requirements;
- select the required passport endorsements for each project;
- review unusual compute, storage, permission, and AI-tool requests;
- distinguish ETH-wide rules from IDEAL Lab policy;
- respond to credential, confidentiality, data-loss, and resource incidents;
- plan handover and revoke unnecessary access at project completion;
- maintain volatile documentation using primary sources and review dates.
Required Learning#
Supervisor Onboarding Packet#
Before a researcher starts, record:
Project and supervisor:
GitHub repositories and permission level:
Information owner and classification:
NAS/Euler storage locations:
Required passport tracks:
Euler account/share requirements:
Approved AI tools or restrictions:
Expected handover date and owner:
Evidence#
- One completed onboarding packet.
- A documented decision on storage and AI-tool use.
- Review of the researcher's assigned route and any separately flagged operational access or ownership decision.
- An offboarding or handover owner.
Pass Criteria#
The researcher can begin without guessing about access, storage, data classification, AI tools, or compute policy. Exceptions are written, scoped, time-limited, and owned.
