Training on Research Data Management

Let us train you in the management of your social science research data - online or on-site.

With our training courses, we support researchers in the legally compliant implementation of their empirical research projects and in making research data available in accordance with FAIR Data Principles and the requirements of e.g. funding institutions and academic journals. Another declared aim of the training courses is to promote the sharing and re-use of research data in line with the idea of Open Science.

We discuss the possible content of our training courses with you in advance to ensure that your individual needs and requirements are covered. Example contents of RDM training courses could be

  • General introduction to research data management and its key areas
  • Preparation of research data
  • Documentation and metadata
  • Organization of research data in the course of a project
  • Data protection and research (informed consent and anonymization)
  • Sharing data with third parties and copyright of research materials

You can also find an impression of our training content in our slide collection.
