We would like to invite you to the 'Data Management Training in the Humanities' workshop, which will take place on the morning of Thursday the 22nd July, 2010 in Oxford. This half-day workshop will consider how institutions might meet growing requirements for training in the management of research data within the humanities. The aim is to learn more about research data management training already taking place at UK universities, plans for such training, relevant scoping studies, and related experiences. We are adopting a broad approach to 'data', taking it to mean not just structured information on computers, but the whole range of materials that researchers must assemble and analyse in order to produce their research outputs. Although the focus is on data management training in the humanities, the workshop will hear experiences from other disciplines as well. The workshop is being organised as part of the Sudamih Project (Supporting Data Management Infrastructure in the Humanities), funded by the JISC. The project seeks to develop tools and training that will enable researchers in the humanities to organize their information more effectively.
