Welcome!

Welcome to Mind the GAP, the online training tool on Good Academic Research Practices (GAP) for researchers of all 5 Flemish universities (KU Leuven, UAntwerp, UGent, UHasselt and VUB).
This tool has been created by the Flemish Interuniversity Council (VLIR) in cooperation with the research integrity and policy advisors of the universities.

"A culture of good academic practices is key to maintain and further strenghten the quality and integrity of our research. Fostering such a culture is a shared mission: trustu in individual researchers taking their professional responsibility in their daily work must go hand in hand with dedicated mentoring and warm institutional support at all stages of the research career."

- Rik Van de Walle, Rector UGent -

This tool provides an interactive training on research integrity based on The European Code of Conduct on Research Integrity (ALLEA-Code, 2017) for:

Good Academic Research Practices

Mind the GAP focuses on the good academic research practices contributing to research integrity to help researchers perform high-quality academic research and to prevent mistakes and research misconduct.
