FIDELIS Data Reuse Workshop #3

Online

In this third training workshop, we consider some technical aspects around data reusability. We take a particular focus on several important elements of data management that are crucial for data reuse: metadata, data documentation, and data citation. The event presents the perspectives of specialists who are developing tools to encourage the creation of rich and complete metadata, supporting data documentation, and tracking data impact through citation practices.

Trusted Research for Repository/Data Managers

Trusted Research principles are vital to data stewardship but often misunderstood. This webinar introduces TR and builds user understanding. In partnership with Loughborough University and CaSDAR, NPSA and HEECA are delivering this inaugural webinar as a fantastic opportunity to introduce trusted research (TR) and begin to touch on how you as repository and data managers already are or could be involved in TR as part of your work. We aim to support you by recognising and highlighting the critical role and value you hold in delivering world-leading institutional research, whether this be ensuring compliance and mitigating security risks, dealing with commercial data, and much more. This webinar is the beginning of a wider package of work highlighting the significance of the repository/data community in TR. NCSC will also be present to provide information about cybersecurity.

CaSDaR Data Stewardship Training #1- Principles of Research data management

Online

Join us for the first session in the CaSDaR Data Stewardship Training series, designed specifically for data stewards looking to strengthen their research data management practice. This hands-on training will equip you with the foundational knowledge and practical tools needed to manage research data effectively, consistently, and in line with best practices across disciplines. Whether you are new to data stewardship or looking to consolidate your existing skills, this session provides a solid grounding in the core principles that underpin good RDM. This Training Session will be run by Digital Curation Centre (DCC).

CaSDaR Data Stewardship Training #2 – Data ethics and data protection

Online

Join us for the second session in the CaSDaR Data Stewardship Training series, where we turn our focus to one of the most critical and complex areas of research data management: ethics, data protection, and the handling of sensitive data. As data stewards, navigating the legal, ethical, and institutional frameworks surrounding research data is an essential part of the role. This session will provide you with the knowledge and practical grounding to handle sensitive data responsibly, ensure compliance with data protection regulations, and uphold the rights and dignity of research participants. This training session will be run by Digital Curation Centre (DCC).

CaSDaR Data Stewardship Training #3 – FAIR Data

Online

Join us for the third session in the CaSDaR Data Stewardship Training series, dedicated to the FAIR principles. FAIR (Findable, Accessible, Interoperable, and Reusable) has become the cornerstone of open science and responsible data stewardship. This session will take you from the foundational concepts behind FAIR all the way through to practical implementation, giving you the tools and strategies to make research data and other research objects genuinely FAIR in your day-to-day work. This training session will be run by Digital Curation Centre (DCC).

CaSDaR Data Stewardship Training #4 – Mastering Metadata

Online

Join us for the fourth session in the CaSDaR Data Stewardship Training series, in response to the growing need for practical metadata stewardship skills across the research landscape. Designed for Data Stewards and professionals supporting research data management, the session introduces approaches to efficiently clean, standardise, enrich, and transform metadata using tools such as OpenRefine. Participants will explore how metadata practices support FAIR principles, data sharing, repository ingest, and cross-disciplinary reuse. Through practical exercises and collaborative discussion, attendees will gain experience addressing real-world metadata challenges commonly encountered in research environments. This training will be run by the Digital Preservation Southampton.

CaSDaR Data Stewardship Training #5 – Data Selection and Preservation

Online

Join us for the fifth session in the CaSDaR Data Stewardship Training series, where we turn our attention to two deeply interconnected pillars of responsible data stewardship: data selection and long-term preservation. In an era of ever-growing data volumes, knowing what to keep, how to keep it, and for how long is one of the most consequential decisions a data steward can make. Poor selection and preservation practices put research outputs at risk of being lost, inaccessible, or unusable over time — undermining both the scientific record and the investment made in collecting the data in the first place. This session will equip you with the frameworks, tools, and practical judgment needed to make sound decisions about data selection and to implement robust preservation strategies that stand the test of time. This training session will be run by Digital Curation Centre (DCC).
