As Ontario Colleges continue to develop their Institutional Strategies for Research Data Management (RDM) and the Tri-Agency begins to require Data Management Plans for some of their funding, there is a need for RDM training for college researchers. In collaboration with Humber Libraries, Humber College Office of Research & Innovation has responded to this need by developing a short series of Research Data Management workshops. The first one is being offered on October 5, 2022.
In this workshop, participants will learn best practices to avoid data loss and identify and reduce risks that can jeopardize their research data. They will practice crafting a research data management plan (DMP) and learn about the tools available on the DMP Assistant website. To prepare for the workshop, participants are encouraged to view this video How to avoid a data management nightmare - YouTube from NYU Health Sciences.
Title: How to avoid a research data management nightmare
Date and time: October 5, 2022 noon to 1:30 p.m.
Location: Online
Learning outcomes - Participants will be able to:
- Explain why research data management is important,
- Discuss potential causes and implications of research data loss,
