Institutional Research Data Management Strategy Guidance

This new Template and Guidance will help institutions develop their own strategies, through

• Evaluating their current RDM capacity
• Identifying changes needed to comply with funder policies and other RDM best practices
• Developing a roadmap to build capacity for research data stewardship
• Aligning with national RDM policies and statements

Key changes include tightening up language around each step of the strategy development process and updating the Guidance to better reflect the current RDM ecosystem and available resources.  The Template has also been updated to assume the Tri-Agency RDM Policy has been launched.
