Data Management Roadshows
The DCC roadshows are touring the regions of England, Scotland, Wales and Northern Ireland over the next 12 months. They are designed to allow every institution in the UK to prepare for effective research data management and understand more about how the DCC can help.
You also get to hear from speakers local to you about how they have tackled some of these issues. We can only visit each region once, so take the chance to attend when we are near you.
There will be approximately six roadshows per annum, each spanning two days, with a wide geographical reach across the UK. In 2011 we held roadshows in Sheffield, Glasgow, Oxford, Cambridge and Cardiff. In 2012 we have already come to Loughborough and Salford, will be in April in Newcastle Upon Tyne; in May we are coming to London and in June to Belfast.
- Steve Walsh from the Aberystwyth University wrote a review of the Oxford roadshow.
- Tahani Nadim, University of London, and John Murtagh, University of the Arts London, summarised the Cambridge roadshow.
- Key themes from Loughborough roadshow were reported by Rachel Proudfoot of Leeds RoaDMap project and Anne Spalding, Kaptur Project Officer at the University for the Creative Arts.
- A report on the Northwest England roadshow in Salford is available on the SONEX blog.

Testimonials
The roadshow as a whole will feed into the implementation plan we are developing following the passing of our RDM policy.
It prompted me to think, come up with lots of ideas, and realise that I know something/have a contribution to make.
I very much enjoyed the speakers who were actually working on a research data project.
Presentation were all good and relevant to the subject rather than merely talking about what people are doing.
