II Online Training Cycle of the Scopus Database

On line Virtual

15:00 h - 16:00 h

The FECYT, together with Elsevier, has organized the II Online Training Cycle of the Scopus Database that will take place throughout the second semester of 2025, with the aim of making known the updates, changes and novelties of this database, through several free sessions, in Spanish, and that will be held during the coming months.

The sessions offered for the month of December 2025 are:

  • December 15 (from 15 to 16 pm): Scopus: metrics and journal comparison
    o Prior knowledge of Scopus to follow the session
    o Review of the content on journal metrics and how to compare them in a simple way
    o Explanation of conventional metrics and the classification by quartiles of indexed sources.
     

  • December 16 (from 15 to 16 pm): Analyze the relevance of your scientific production with criteria of author, journals and social impact. In this session you will learn how to find in Scopus
    o Number of publications
    o Number of Citations
    o H-Index
    o Publication descriptors
    o Impact of publications considering the metrics of the journals where you have published
    o Social impact in patents, public policies and SDGs

As usual, it should be remembered that these sessions are open and aimed at all students, researchers and users who are part of any Spanish R&D&I institution with a Scopus license.

You can consult all the sessions and formalize your prior registration through this link. The first time you access it, you will be asked to validate yourself in SABiDi with your university credentials. From here, you can choose the session or sessions of your interest. Use the URV institutional email when filling out the registration form. Once formalized, you will receive a confirmation email that you must save because it contains the link to be able to access the session on the day and time indicated. Check your spam folder if you have not received it.

All users who take the courses and answer 100% of all the online questions that will be asked live throughout the session will receive a satisfaction survey by email and, a few weeks later, the certificate of attendance.

 Recorded sessions and training material from other courses on Scopus and also on Web of Science can also be downloaded.
