When you're working on incorporating good research data management (RDM) practices into your research, a data management plan, or DMP, is a crucial tool to ensuring you can keep everything organized, both during and after your project. DMPs are also increasingly being required as part of funding applications, including those for the Tri-Agencies. This workshop will examine the key questions to consider when preparing a DMP, and will introduce the DMP Assistant online tool for preparing your plan.

This session is primarily intended for graduate students, faculty, postdoctoral fellows, and staff engaged in research outside of the classroom setting. For undergraduate students conducting research for a class, please contact your subject librarian.

For those who would like a general introduction to research data management, please consider attending the Introduction to Research Data Managementworkshop on January 5. For information on other skills related to RDM, please consider the Personal Digital Archving workshop on January 7, and/or Digital File Management workshop on January 8.
