[Irtalk] Workshop: services to support RDM (Research Data Management) - 17 March 2016

[Heila Pienaar]

Services to Support Research Data ManagementAbout the workshop
Many organisations which generate research data need to establish
services to support research data management (RDM). It is necessary to
address capabilities in terms of:
 RDM policy, strategy development, governance and sustainability, 
  data management support and staff development, and
  research data storage, preservation and sharing.

This requires an understanding of research, research data and curation,
a thorough situation analysis and a clear roadmap of how these services
could be rendered. 
 
The Network of Data & Information Curation Communities (NeDICC) (
http://nedicc.com/ ) is pleased to announce a workshop on Services to
Support Research Data Management. Martie van Deventer (CSIR) and Lucia
Lötter (HSRC) will be presenting information relevant to this topic
and will assist attendees to assess institutional research data
management support readiness, to develop institutional roadmaps and to
identify the needs of institutions. There will also be an opportunity to
provide input in terms of a roadmap for national RDM support.
 
Librarians, knowledge management workers, data curators, researchers
and others interested are invited to register for this workshop.
