SUMMARY:Data Management for Reproducible Research
DESCRIPTION:Mondays\, Wednesdays\, and Fridays from May 4-15\, 2026 \n\n\n\n11:30am-4:30pm Eastern Time (4 hours of instruction with a one-hour break) \n\n\n\nOverview\n\n\n\nJoin us May 4–15 for the 2026 edition of RDM Jumpstart! \n\n\n\nThis free national workshop\, held on Monday\, Wednesday and Friday for two weeks\, will introduce participants to best practices in both Research Data Management (RDM) and computational reproducibility with the R programming language. By the end of the program\, participants will be able to: \n\n\n\n\nExplain how RDM principles support research transparency and reproducibility\n\n\n\nApply RDM practices to real-world examples and consider how they can be applied to your own work\n\n\n\nImplement reproducible research workflows using R and RStudio\, and\n\n\n\nDevelop transferable strategies for independently learning and adopting new digital tools for research and applying RDM practices to different types of data.\n\n\n\n\nParticipants will work through a mock research project with synthetic survey data. \n\n\n\nKey Information\n\n\n\nThis program is targeted at graduate students and postdoctoral fellows with little to no experience in RDM or coding. While anyone is welcome to apply\, applications from current/incoming September 2026 Masters and Doctoral students and Post-Doctoral Fellows will be prioritized. \n\n\n\nThe program will be delivered via Zoom. This experience will be enhanced by prior familiarity with Zoom\, a mic\, a headset\, a camera\, and a space with minimal background noise. Access to reliable internet will be required to participate in the program. Participation in the form of conversation\, break out rooms\, collective problem solving\, etc.\, will be expected. You should feel comfortable with this on Zoom. \n\n\n\nYou will need a computer running MacOS\, Windows\, or Linux for this program; a tablet or Chromebook will not suffice. We will be using applications that need to be installed on your computer and you will be required to download data. This means you will need administrative access on your computer to install applications and space to accommodate the data. You should anticipate needing a minimum of 1GB of free hard disk space. \n\n\n\nAttendees are expected to participate in all sessions of the series. Please note that the sessions will be offered in English. \n\n\n\nApplications open on March 16\, and close on April 7. Acceptance notices will be sent out in the week of April 13\, and acceptance replies will be due in the week of April 20.

SUMMARY:Students deserve Research Data Management! Teaching with the RDM Educators Kit
DESCRIPTION:Date: May 5 2026 \n\n\n\nYour students deserve to know about Research Data Management! In this brand-new “train the trainer” session for educators\, RDM Services will prepare you to prepare your graduate and undergraduate students for increasing grant and publisher requirements for Data Management Plans and Data Deposit. \n\n\n\n“Do my students even have data to manage?” you might ask. Au contraire mon capitane\, they do! If research involves biological samples or survey results\, you may feel confident you’re working with research data. But what if your research is rooted in creative practice? What if you’re looking for the specific heat of a material under a magnetic field? Data have many formats: text\, numbers\, images\, recordings\, software\, algorithms\, workflows. Research Data Management is caring for data through the research lifecycle: planning to archiving. \n\n\n\nWe’ll discuss integrating our new RDM Educators Kit in the classroom\, from 2-minute slide inserts to RDM class visits to multi-class Data Management Plan creation as an “open hand of cards.” We’ll end with a working session to imagine challenges and possibilities! \n\n\n\nParticipants will learn to: \n\n\n\n\nSummarize RDM best practices and what Data Management Plans and Data Deposit look like in your field\n\n\n\nLocate available tools from RDM Services\n\n\n\nPrepare to implement Research Data Management tools in the classroom.\n\n\n\n\nThis session is great for educators from faculty to sessional instructors to graduate students ready to bring RDM into their classrooms! \n\n\n\nDetails: Any preparatory work for the session can be found on its information page. This virtual workshop will be recorded and shared on the same page\, and discoverable via the Sherman Centre’s Online Learning Catalogue. \n\n\n\nFacilitator Bio:  \n\n\n\nIsaac Pratt (he/him) is a research scientist by training and has a PhD in Anatomy & Cell Biology. He leverages nearly a decade of interdisciplinary research experience to help support students\, staff\, and faculty. His expertise lies in questions surrounding data storage\, security\, planning\, archival\, and sharing. Isaac also provides support and curation services for McMaster Dataverse. His other interests include reproducible research methods\, open science\, and data science. \n\n\n\nDanica Evering holds expansive experience with research support\, education\, project management\, advocacy\, and knowledge translation; with fluency in social practice art\, healthcare\, community research\, data\, and systems development. Danica supports students\, postdocs\, faculty\, and staff with RDM through the data lifecycle—Data Management Plans\, storage and backup\, data security\, data sharing. With an MA in Media Studies from Concordia\, they are interested in fostering RDM within curious scholars and disciplines. \n\n\n\nCertificate Eligibility: This workshop is eligible for the Sherman Centre’s certificate program. For more information\, visit scds.ca/certificate-program. It is also eligible for the Canadian Certificate for Digital Humanities. To learn more\, visit ccdhhn.ca or contact scds@mcmaster.ca. \n\n\n\nCredit Eligibility: This workshop counts toward credit for students in the Faculty of Science who are enrolled in SCIENCE 2SF1: Digital Skills Workshop. For any questions\, please contact oursci@mcmaster.ca.

SUMMARY:Research Data Management for Humanities Researchers
DESCRIPTION:Dates: May 5th 2026 to May 8th 2026 \n\n\n\nInstructors:Shahira Khair\, University of Victoria LibrariesSandra Sawchuck\, Mount Saint Vincent Libraries \n\n\n\n\nThis intensive four-day hands-on workshop is designed for humanities researchers who want to actively apply best practices in research data management in their own research projects. Recognizing the unique and diverse nature of humanities data—from digitized texts and images\, to audio recordings and cultural artifacts—the workshop provides practical\, actionable strategies across the entire research data lifecycle\, from initial planning to long-term preservation and reuse.  \n\n\n\nThis is a “bring your own data” workshop! Participants should arrive with the research materials they are seeking help in managing. This can be from an existing project or one you are just embarking on! (And we can point you in some directions if you are looking for data!) \n\n\n\nParticipants will gain proficiency in developing comprehensive Data Management Plans (DMPs)\, essential for navigating funder requirements (e.g. SSHRC\, NEH) and streamlining project workflows. Through practical exercises\, the curriculum emphasizes effective organization and documentation of research materials\, use of software for analysis and automation\, and the critical role of metadata in ensuring data discoverability and long-term reusability. Sessions will cover secure storage solutions and long-term preservation techniques to safeguard valuable research materials. \n\n\n\nA significant focus is placed on the ethical dimensions inherent in many research areas in the humanities\, addressing sensitive data\, informed consent\, use of AI\, and the crucial principles of cultural sensitivity and Indigenous data sovereignty. The workshop also guides researchers through strategic data sharing by exploring appropriate repositories (disciplinary and generalist)\, applying robust curation practices\, and navigating licensing and persistent identifiers to maximize research impact and compliance with evolving funder and publisher requirements. Upon completion\, attendees will be empowered to confidently manage\, preserve\, and ethically share their research\, enhancing the integrity\, accessibility\, and scholarly impact of their work. \n\n\n\n\nMax Participants: 25
