A major goal of ECORD is to train the next generation of scientists from member countries and promote IODP-motivated science. Several summer schools are sponsored every year by ECORD to further foster the education of young scientists in marine-related sciences and to train a new generation to participate in future ocean drilling expeditions. Initiated in 2007, ECORD Summer Schools are now well established and are attended by many participants (120 students in 2017) from ECORD member countries and beyond.
