> Dear colleagues
> 
> Identity federations and eduGAIN are all about exchanging attributes. If
> attribute release does not work properly, running a federated identity
> management infrastructure is pointless.
> 
> Because attribute release in eduGAIN (and federations!) still causes
> problems for many research services, the GÉANT project organized a
> well-attended webinar in July on the topic of "Successful Attribute
> Release". Not all interested people could participate at this live
> webinar. Because they live in another time zone, because they already
> had another meeting, because they just couldn't.
> 
> Good thing that there is now the online training "Successful Attribute
> Release", which is available 24/7 all around the world. Compared to a
> live webinar the online training provides more details, more
> interactivity and more content in general to teach Identity Provider
> administrators about attribute release. Questions that pop up during the
> course still can be asked: Either by asking them live on
> https://edugain.slack.com/ or sending them to support at edugain.org.
> 
> The topics of the online training include:
> 
> * Federated Identity Management and eduGAIN
>  General introduction into the topics
> 
> * Attribute Release and impact on users and services
>  Why bad attribute release hinders research and what
>  could be done by IdP administrators to fix this
> 
> * eduGAIN IdP Health Check
>  A five-step test to check if an IdP is properly set up
>  in eduGAIN and if it releases attributes to service using
>  entity categories.

> Where is the "Successful Attribute Release" online training?
> ------------------------------------------------------------
> It's hosted on the GÉANT Learning and Development (GLAD) e-learning
> platform. The direct link to the online training is:
> https://e-academy.geant.org/moodle/course/view.php?id=22
> 
> Btw. there is also a worthwhile online course on SIRTFI:
> https://e-academy.geant.org/moodle/course/view.php?id=2
> 
> 
> Who should attend the course?
> -----------------------------
> We invite all Identity Provider administrators to take the online
> training because only they can help fixing insufficient attribute release.
> 
> We encourage also federation operators to have a look at the online
> training and then recommend it to their local IdP administrator community.
> 
> 
> Who created the online course?
> ------------------------------
> The course was created by the GÉANT project with help from the GÉANT
> Learning and Development Team. Much of the content was reused from the
> AARC Project's live training (2016 in Prague) on attribute release.
> 
> 
> Best regards and let the attributes flow!
