The Research Life CycleΒΆ
In this course, we will have exercises which will give you practice with transferring data. In order to ensure that you have the skills necessary to manage data throughout the course of your project, we have structured these exercises to reflect your data managment needs in each of the 4 stages of the research cycle.
