Research Data Management

Posted by Jaq-Lin Larder on January 4, 2022 in Announcements

This new video series is designed to familiarize researchers and those supporting them with DMPs and the DMP Assistant tool. These videos will also help researchers and institutions prepare to meet the upcoming Tri-Agency Research Data Management Policy requirement to include DMPs with grant proposals, in addition to helping researchers implement RDM best practices in their work. 

There are currently three videos available: 

  • Introduction to DMP Assistant: Covers the basic steps in using the DMP Assistant tool, including setting up an account and creating a new plan from scratch, as well as other features, such as downloading and sharing DMPs. 
  • Managing DMPs with DMP Assistant: A more in-depth exploration of the DMP Assistant’s features, including editing, downloading, sharing, copying, and removing DMPs.

These videos were developed through the hard work of the DMP Assistant 2.0 Tutorial Video Working Group of the Data Management Planning Expert Group, and are part of a suite of resources for understanding and creating DMPs. Please visit Portage Training Resources or the DMP Assistant for more information. If you have any questions about these videos or DMPs, please contact Alliance Data Management Planning Coordinator Robyn Nicholson at robyn.​nicholson@​alliancecan.​ca.
