Dear Colleague,
We will be repeating the NeDICC workshop for rookie data managers in Pretoria on 28 August. This very successful workshop was launched at the 5th African Conference for Digital Scholarship and Curation during June and due to demand we have decided to make it available in Gauteng as well. Space is limited so unfortunately we can accommodate no more than 50 attendees.
Venue: CSIR Knowledge CommonsDate: 28 August 2013Time: 09:00 - 14:00Price: R399 VAT included
A light lunch will be served at 13:00.
The workshop will provide those who are starting out on the data management journey the opportunity to hear how other rookie data managers are coping with the new challenges, where they find their information and who they talk to. Delegates will also have the opportunity gain advice from those who have already engaged with researchers and those who are providing their research clients with appropriate training. They will also have the opportunity to hear from one institution where data management has become part of the way in which things get done.
OBSTACLE #1: Unfamiliarity with ‘Research Data Management” concept.........

OBSTACLE #2 : What research data do we have in the CSIR? (and that’s just the start……)
![Page 28: Research Data Management: obstacles faced by the novice data manager](https://reader035.vdocument.in/reader035/viewer/2022062523/543590bf8d7f72e3568b7a53/html5/thumbnails/28.jpg)

Obstacle #4: Global trends............way ahead
• Training tools: (courses, degrees) * DMTpsych (psychology) * Mantra (wide coverage) * Cairo (creative arts) * DATUM for Health (health studies) * DataTrain (archaeology)
• Data Archives/Data Repositories/Data banks
* UK Data Archive (soc science in UK) * National Space Science Data Center (space)
• Funder requirements * DMP is essential
![Page 36: Research Data Management: obstacles faced by the novice data manager](https://reader035.vdocument.in/reader035/viewer/2022062523/543590bf8d7f72e3568b7a53/html5/thumbnails/36.jpg)
• UK: Legal requirements…all Research Councils now have
research data management policies, based on a set of common principles formulated by Research Councils UK
• USA: National Institutes of Health: Data Sharing Policy: Supports the sharing of research data and expects researchers funded at $500,000 or more to include a data sharing plan in their grant proposals
• USA: National Science Foundation (NSF): Dissemination and Sharing of Research Results: Beginning January 18, 2011, NSF will require grant proposals to include a supplementary data management plan of no more than 2 pages. This requirement is a new implementation of the long-standing NSF Data Sharing Policy
• Australia: Monash University Policy Bank: The purpose of this policy is to ensure that research data is stored, retained, made accessible for use and reuse, and/or disposed of, according to legal, statutory, ethical and funding bodies’ requirements.

• “Homeless” data quickly become no data at all: curation NB
• There is no economic “magic bullet” that does not require someone, somewhere, to pay: funding required
• What happens to valuable data when project funding ends: long term planning required
• Additionally:
* infrastructure * policy/guidelines/training * team
• Data management planning does not happen in a vacuum
• :
Some final points to ponder on….

So, in a nutshell..........
![Page 41: Research Data Management: obstacles faced by the novice data manager](https://reader035.vdocument.in/reader035/viewer/2022062523/543590bf8d7f72e3568b7a53/html5/thumbnails/41.jpg)
THE WAY FORWARD:
Step 1:
• survey/audit/inventory• aim: Research Data Management Practices• questionnaire edited, refined• ethics clearance• target sample chosen: Research Group Leaders• audio recording…transcribed• all units, all Research Group Leaders• confidentiality• benchmark against similar studies
![Page 42: Research Data Management: obstacles faced by the novice data manager](https://reader035.vdocument.in/reader035/viewer/2022062523/543590bf8d7f72e3568b7a53/html5/thumbnails/42.jpg)
THE WAY FORWARD:
Step 2: Analysis………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………..…..……………………………..
Step 3:Recommendations: • personnel• infrastructure• cost
Step 99:• CSIR Research Data Policy• Training/Guidelines• Data Repository• Sharing
