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
