A new MOOC has been launched by the University of North Carolina at Chapel Hill & the University of Edinburgh. “Research Data Management and Sharing” is hosted on the Coursera platform and it’s free to participate. The course lasts 5 weeks and is mapped to the stages of a research project:
- Understanding Research Data
- Data Management Planning
- Working with Data
- Sharing Data
- Archiving Data
More information on the Coursera website: https://www.coursera.org/learn/research-data-management-and-sharing
This may be particularly of interest to researchers whose funding comes with Research Data policies (check the Sherpa Juliet website) or Early Career Researchers.
