A data management plan is a document that describes what a researcher plans to do with research data before, during and after a project. This helps ensure that your data is adequately managed, easier to find, easier to understand, less likely to be lost, and more likely to be usable during the active stages of your research project or years later. </div><div><br>The presentation will highlight information on RDM components, practices, procedures, and regulations that govern the management of research data at SU, as well as available the tool (SunDMP) that can used by researchers create data management plans.</div></span><span data-np-autofill-form-type="identity" data-np-checked="1" data-np-watching="1"><h3></h3><p></p><p><a href="https://sun.ac.za.libcal.com/event/14529812" target="_blank"><img src="/SiteCollectionImages/general/Book%20now.png" alt="Watch online" style="margin:0px;width:115px;" /></a><br><br></p></span></div></span></span></span> | | |
