Session spotlight: SSHOC (Social Sciences and Humanities Open Cloud) training session – “Caring for Sharing: Data Management and FAIRness of Migration Data”
Following the training session, there will be space and time during coffee breaks and lunch for additional activities such as a demo of QAMyData (a free easy-to-use open source tool developed by the UKDS, designed to detect and report on some of the most common problems in survey or numeric data) or creating a mock data deposit in ReShare, the UKDS self-deposit repository.
The training session and interactive activities will be led by Anca Vlad who is a data repository administrator at UKDS. She manages deposit through the UKDS self-deposit repository (ReShare), advises on data management, data deposit, and ethical considerations when archiving data, and conducts data disclosure checks on deposited data.
