Many thanks to all those who attended and spoke at the Data Management Training for the Humanities workshop. The workshop looked at the data management practices of humanities researchers and the latest research into training requirements in this field. We also heard from various national bodies, regarding their support for data management training and their future intentions. A full workshop report will be available from this website in due course.
The workshop was organized as part of the Sudamih Project (Supporting Data Management Infrastructure in the Humanities), funded by the JISC. The project seeks to develop tools and training that will enable researchers in the humanities to organize their information more effectively.
