Please note that there are a number of training courses offered on various aspects of research data management at Queen's by the Research Data Management team.
Since research data management is such an enormous area - and will often require specialist training depending on the discipline - it is not possible that we would be able to offer all of the training needed for every single researcher. We do advise that you attend our training where appropriate. And that you would avail of the training resources outlined on this page.
External training on RDM:
- OpenAIRE has launched the first two self-paced training modules for RAISE, the platform that helps researchers and institutions work openly and responsibly as part of the European Open Science Cloud (EOSC). This training programme introduces the key ideas behind Open Science and FAIR data, and shows how RAISE helps apply them securely in real research settings. It is designed for researchers, support staff, and institutions who want to work openly while keeping control of their data.
The first two modules are available on OpenPlato:
Module 1: Open Science and FAIR, made simple
Module 2: What RAISE is and why it matters.
- Introduction to research data management for PGRs (2022-2022). University of Glasgow. [Version of an online course that ran 2020-2022].
- MANTRA is an excellent free, online non-assessed course with guidelines to help you understand and reflect on how to manage the digital data you collect throughout your research. It has been designed for use by post-graduate students, early career researchers, and information professionals. It is freely available on the web for anyone to explore on their own. MANTRA is maintained by Data Library staff in Information Services, University of Edinburgh.
