In the era of multi-wavelength and multi-messenger Astronomy, the cooperation in multidisciplinary collaborations is part of the development of the discipline. This approach is also an opportunity to innovate in education, opening a new door to the knowledge using strategies designed from the beginning of the experiments and which are part of the Project Management.
In this contribution we will present, based on some successful experiences connected with specific collaborations as Pierre Auger, the formal framework and challenges that conform the roadmap for education of non traditional topics and non traditional detection, from the moment in which the idea of the contact with the community is born, until the moment in which the collaborations open the original data for public uses.
