Research
data
management
(DM)
is
a
critical
part
of
a
research
program
that
enables
improved
data
collection,
processing,
and
archiving
methods,
which
can
increase
the
value
and
impact
of
your
work.
It
involves
making
decisions
about
how
you
collect
and
look
after
your
data,
and
then
putting
these
decisions
into
action.
Data
Management
is
a
growing
component
of
research
programs
and
funding
applications,
and
it
is
an
integral
part
of
GWF
operations.
In
this
webinar,
you
will
learn
what
Data
Management
is,
why
we
do
it,
and
what
it
looks
like.
We’ll
discuss
metadata
and
Canadian
data
policies,
as
well
as
the
work
of
the
GWF
team
and
how
it
fits
in
with
your
research.
This
webinar,
which
is
the
first
in
a
series
of
GWF
DM
programming,
is
ideal
for
investigators
and
HQP
who
want
to
learn
more
about
the
positive
impact
that
DM
brings
to
their
research.
This
webinar
is
facilitated
by
the
GWF
DM
Team
and
hosted
by
Michael
Steeleworthy
(Faculty
Lead
for
DM,
WLU).
