2021 RCD CM Community Data report

This report describes the second Research Computing and Data Capabilities Model Community Dataset, aggregating the assessments of 51 Higher Education Institutions. These data provide insight into the current state of support for RCD across the community and in a number of key sub-communities. The report is intended to be of use to:

• The Higher Education research community (including campus leadership, funding agencies, and others) who are interested in RCD support for research;

• RCD program leaders who are considering the use of the RCD CM Assessment Tool for their strategic planning work; and

• RCD leadership at institutions who contributed to the 2020/2021 Community Dataset and would like additional context on the individualized benchmarking reports that they receive for their institutions.
