MANTRA Research Data Management Training

MANTRA is a free, online non-assessed course with guidelines to help you understand and reflect on how to manage the digital data you collect throughout your research. It has been created by the Research Data Service of the University of Edinburgh. Through a series of interactive online units key concepts, terminology and best practice in research data management are introduced. There are eight online units in this course and one set of offline (downloadable) data handling tutorials (R, SPSS, NVivo, or ArcGIS).
