Managing your research data: Introduction to data management plans
Wednesday 9 October 10:00 until 11:30
Online : Via Zoom
Speaker: ibrary Digital Development and Systems team
Part of the series: RDP Training Schedule
Writing a data management plan (DMP) is useful for researchers in all disciplines. Research data is produced by most projects, and can be anything: interview recordings, sensor data, economic models and more. A DMP covers how data will be collected, organised, managed, stored, secured, backed-up, preserved, and where applicable, shared. Writing a DMP will help you to anticipate any challenges for working with your data and make the research process much smoother.
Learning outcomes
This workshop will introduce you to the essential elements of a DMP, covering:
- What is a DMP and how can it help you?
- What are the core elements of a DMP and how can you start to write one?
- Using DMPOnline to structure your DMP
- Resources to inform the content of your DMP
We will allow some time for you to start your own DMP.
