A free webinar
Learn how to launch a citizen science project, track the time your volunteers contribute, and connect your work to a global audience of participants. Free and open to anyone who leads a citizen science project.
About CitSci — A free, open-source platform for citizen science. Build custom datasheets, collect data in the field with the mobile app, visualize results, manage volunteers, and export your data anytime—at no charge.
About SciStarter — The world's most comprehensive catalog of citizen science projects. Integrating your CitSci project makes it a SciStarter affiliate, putting it in front of a huge network of libraries, schools, museums, agencies, and media partners.
Why attend — Recruiting volunteers, proving impact to funders, and keeping participants engaged are hard. This hands-on session shows you how CitSci and SciStarter make all three easier.
What you'll learn: (1) Creating a project on CitSci — from idea to published project, including building data collection forms, (2) New time-tracking features — how volunteers log time and how leaders report total volunteer hours for grants, donor communications, and recognizing top contributors, all within your project's privacy settings, (3) Integrating your CitSci project with SciStarter — how to enable the integration, what gets approved, and the benefits: wider discovery, targeted recruitment, promotional support, and a shared volunteer dashboard.
