Brilliant TTRAM (transparent trustworthy repository attributes matrix) intro by Hervé L'Hours this morning.
Exec summary:
"trust is a complicated beast with a lot of contexts"
Longer:
"TRUST is not binary & a static outcome of a signle, one-size-fits-all assessment. Defining trustworthiness in (meaningful) contexts depends on understanding objects,actors,roles & expected lvls of service.(...) assessment of trustworthiness needs to be based on reliable, transparent info"

Great to see that CoreTrustSeal has introduce a training webpage for reviewers! The page includes a quiz, a best practice guideline to support consistent reviewer feedback and videos covering things like the updates contained in the recent guideline version.
It's often forgotten that certification is more than just the requirements, so kudos to the CoreTrustSeal board for introducing this resource (and making it openly available!). You can take a look here:
