Data management plans (DMPs) help researchers identify and implement their data management needs during the life of their research program. This includes topics like storage, access, description/metadata, backups, sensitivity, and more.
Since 2021, the Tri-Agencies have required DMPs or data management methodologies to be included in all grant applications. It's also just good practice to identify these data strengths and gaps, especially at the start of your research programme.
This webinar will introduce the Library's data management planning service and our free webtool, the DMP Assistant. We'll demonstrate the Funding Opportunity DMP template, which covers 5 core areas critical to researchers who are in the initial stages of their grant application:
- Ethics, Legal, and Commercial Issues​
- Data Collection​
- Data Documentation​
- Data Storage and Access​
- Data Archiving and Disposition
This webinar will benefit researchers and grad students, especially if you are planning a new grant application. Grad students are especially welcomed to this webinar given the benefits that data management planning brings to thesis preparation and fieldwork!
This webinar is geared toward researchers and grad students. It is also part of the 2025 ASPIRE series of workshops.
