To develop a standard CERIF-XML schema and agreed vocabularies building on work done in earlier JISC projects such as Readiness4Ref, CRISPool, CERIFy, and IRIOS.
Build standard, production-ready plug-ins to import and export data in this agreed format for CRIS, Repository and Research Council software and demonstrate the use of these plug-ins in live systems :
• exchanging data between partner institutions e.g. when an researcher moves to a new institution
• uploading grant-level information to RCUK ROS
Produce roadmap with costs/benefits for adoption of this standard CERIF-XML approach for other HEIs and other use cases, in particular the development of an open source aggregator and portal for use by research pools and other consortia.
Summary
‘Synthesise, standardise and productionise CERIF for UK Higher Educational Institutions’

Mapping issues
• Unique person IDs … so many ways CRISPool: person-[UKPRN]-[Person InstID] IRIOS: Generated UUIDs CERIFy: Employee IDs from Incites
Some options:1. LOD (Linked Open Data) or new External ID entity in CERIF 1.3
[hot of the press yesterday!]– relates on external ID to internal ID
2. Internal unique ID and IDs in Person and e.g. OrgUnit link tables
3. use a Classification scheme to carry the additional external IDs against cfPers as in CRISPool and R4R

Mapping issues
• Personal/Honorific Titles CRISPool: not used? IRIOS: uses cfPerson_Classfication CERIFy: not used?
Suggest adding to CERIF semantics?
• Organisation Types CRISPool: University > School > Department > etc. IRIOS: Similar to CRISPool CERIFy: Mapping roles in OrgUnit_EAddress
CERIF semantics list top-level only
