STEP-UP In Person Training: Systems Thinking for RSE/dRTP

This interactive workshop introduces systems thinking through practical exercises, real-world examples, and group discussion. Together, we'll explore how people, processes, and technology interact, and how small changes can help create better outcomes for projects, teams, and stakeholders. Throughout the workshop, you'll have the opportunity to map systems relevant to your own work and learn approaches for finding effective interventions that go beyond quick fixes. Whether you're trying to improve software adoption, strengthen collaboration, or increase the impact of your work, systems thinking can help you identify both the wider factors shaping projects outcomes and opportunities for meaningful change.

UKeIG: CPD course on Research Data Management for information professionals

To fulfill the role of supporting Research Data Management (RDM) librarians need to build an understanding of the policy context in which managing data has become important and gain a good grasp of researchers’ activities, motives, perceptions and feelings around their research and their data. This online course explains the need for research data services, how to find out about users and their needs and then how to apply this knowledge to create a portfolio of research data services that they will want to use.

CaSDaR Data Stewardship Training #5 – Data Selection and Preservation

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).
