Purpose

  • Support communities of both practicing research data management professionals and professionals with an interest in research data management (a “Community of Practice” and a “Community of Interest”). This is accomplished by providing time to discuss current topics, trends, and issues with peers, and through education on a variety of topics, including good data management practices, current funder standards, and tools to streamline data manipulation or analysis.
  • Support our communities by being responsive to the evolving needs of data management professionals.
  • Organize two to three professional development events each year with a focus on education and information sharing.
  • Work collaboratively with other SIGs towards shared goals and initiatives.
