Writing a data management plan workshop

A research data management plan (DMP) is used to record important decisions and considerations relating to the management of research data in a project. A DMP is required for any research project involving sensitive or restricted research data at the University. In this workshop, we introduce the University's online DMP tool and offer best-practice examples and section-by-section advice for creating a research DMP.

Registration is open for the four workshops planned for this year:

• Tuesday 17 March
• Wednesday 13 May, 10am-12pm
• Thursday 30 July, 10am-12pm
• Thursday 8 October, 10am-12pm

In addition to the schedule above, research groups can request a workshop by emailing researchdata@auckland.ac.nz.

Attendees will be able to:

• Describe the importance of good research data management planning and its key role in the responsible conduct of research.
• Consider your research in terms of the research data lifecycle and apply policies, data classification, and best practices.
• Be aware of the University’s online data management planning tool and where to find support and guidance.
• Use the information in this workshop to develop a data management plan and maintain it throughout your research.

Read the workshop materials:

• Presentation slides for the Writing a Data Management Plan workshop.
• Presentation slides for the Writing a Data Management Plan (for qualitative researchers) workshop.

Researchers who need additional assistance with research data management
planning can request a Research data management consultation.

Participants are encouraged to engage with their peers across the University research community, including workshop instructors and CeR staff, by joining HackyHour to post questions and exchange ideas.
