Abstract
The Tri-Agency (CIHR, NSERC and SSHRC) has composed a Statement of Principles on Digital Data Management. It states that “high-quality data management is fundamental to research excellence”. So it is important for researchers to understand what is meant by Research Data Management (RDM). This workshop will give you an overview of RDM and how you will benefit from it.

Learning Outcomes:
1. Define the key components of Research Data Management (RDM).
2. Relate your research to a process known as a Research Data Management Plan (RDMP).
3. Create a Research Data Management Plan.
