Open Access

TL;DR

This paper reports on a survey of 473 early-career researchers in Europe regarding their experiences with instrumentation training, providing insights to inform the ECFA Detector R&D Roadmap.

Contribution

It presents the first comprehensive feedback from European ECRs on instrumentation training, aiding future development in detector R&D strategies.

Findings

01

Identified gaps in instrumentation training among ECRs

02

Highlighted the need for more structured training programs

03

Provided data to guide future R&D roadmap decisions

Abstract

The European Committee for Future Accelerators (ECFA) Early-Career Researchers (ECR) Panel was invited by the ECFA Detector R&D Roadmap conveners to collect feedback from the European ECR community. A working group within the ECFA ECR panel held a Townhall Meeting to get first input, and then designed and broadly circulated a detailed survey to gather feedback from the larger ECR community. A total of 473 responses to this survey were received, providing a useful overview of the experiences of ECRs in instrumentation training and related topics. This report summarises the feedback received, and is intended to serve as an input to the ECFA Detector R&D Roadmap process.
