Results from previous projects (e.g. JISC "RDMTrain":http://www.jisc.ac.uk/whatwedo/programmes/mrd/rdmtrain.aspx programme, "Research Data Management Skills Support Initiative":http://www.dcc.ac.uk/training/data-management-courses-and-training/skills-frameworks (DaMSSI), "Incremental":http://www.jisc.ac.uk/whatwedo/programmes/mrd/rdmi/incremental.aspx ), as well as available material from the "DCC":http://www.dcc.ac.uk/ and other institutions, will be studied and evaluated. Disciplines will be compared and parts of the available material identified that need to be adapted to appeal to researchers in the area of digital music and audio research. In order to integrate the material into the "Vitae":http://www.vitae.ac.uk/ /RCUK "Researcher Development Framework":http://www.vitae.ac.uk/researchers/428241/Researcher-Development-Framework.html , used to assign credits by the "QMUL Learning Institute":http://www.learninginstitute.qmul.ac.uk/ , the recently released "Information-handling Lens" will also be analysed.

h2. Previous JISC Projects with Data Management Training Outputs
10 1 Steve Welburn
11 122 Steve Welburn
There are lots of materials relating to data management available through "Jorum":http://dspace.jorum.ac.uk/xmlui/advanced-search?_method=POST&field2=licence&query2=creativecommons.org&query1=research+data+management these include audio interviews, PowerPoint presentations, factsheets, videos and more. Many of these are outputs of previous JISC-funded projects, and we consider some of those here.

The JISC "RDMTrain":http://www.jisc.ac.uk/whatwedo/programmes/mrd/rdmtrain.aspx programme funded five discipline-specific research data management training projects in 2010-2011.
14 40 Steve Welburn
15 64 Steve Welburn
Two projects produced online courses:
16 123 Steve Welburn
* [[Project CAIRO]] - Managing Creative Arts Research Data (4 short units)
17 123 Steve Welburn
* [[MANTRA]] - for ??geosciences, social and political sciences and clinical psychology?? (a very detailed self-guided course)
18 40 Steve Welburn
19 124 Steve Welburn
The remaining three courses are published as downloadable materials for training sessions:
20 125 Steve Welburn
* [[DATUM for Health]] - 3 sessions
21 125 Steve Welburn
* [[DMTpsych]] - 6 sessions
22 126 Steve Welburn
* [[DataTrain]] - different versions for archaeology (4 sessions) and social anthropology (3 modules targetted at different audiences)

The "Supporting Data Management Infrastructure for the Humanities":http://sudamih.oucs.ox.ac.uk/ (Sudamih) project at Oxford was funded by JISC under the Research Data Management Infrastructure Programme. Sudamih produced training materials specifically to fit in with the practise of humanities research "at Oxford":http://sudamih.oucs.ox.ac.uk/documents.xml and also released de-localised materials on Jorum:
25 66 Steve Welburn
* Three slideshows at varying levels of detail including  materials targeted at post-doc researchers ("Jorum":http://dspace.jorum.ac.uk/xmlui/handle/123456789/14727)
26 66 Steve Welburn
* Research Data Management Factsheet ("Jorum":http://dspace.jorum.ac.uk/xmlui/handle/123456789/14711)
27 1 Steve Welburn
* Research Information Management Guides ("Jorum":http://dspace.jorum.ac.uk/xmlui/handle/123456789/14724)
28 67 Steve Welburn
* Research Information Management: Organising Humanities Material ("Jorum":http://dspace.jorum.ac.uk/xmlui/handle/123456789/14725)
29 67 Steve Welburn
* Research Information Management: Tools for the Humanities ("Jorum":http://dspace.jorum.ac.uk/xmlui/handle/123456789/14726)

The "Incremental":http://www.jisc.ac.uk/whatwedo/programmes/mrd/rdmi/incremental.aspx project at Glasgow and Cambridge was also part of the JISC Research Data Management Infrastructure programme. Incremental aimed to develop a data management infrastructure by examining existing practises and requirements at the institutions, piloting tools and services to enable data management (examples of proposed outputs included ??"templates, training, best practice guidelines, and policy"??) and embedding those outputs withing the institutions. In addition, they aimed to disseminate the results to the wider research community. During the course of the project many training resources were produced and these have been published on Jorum. We provide a summary of some resources on our page on [[Incremental]].

h2. Vitae Researcher Development Framework
34 118 Steve Welburn
35 118 Steve Welburn
The "Vitae":http://www.vitae.ac.uk/ "Researcher Development Framework":http://www.vitae.ac.uk/researchers/428241/Researcher-Development-Framework.html (RDF) categorises the knowledge, behaviours and attributes of researchers and uses this as a foundation to guide the development of researcher skills.
36 118 Steve Welburn
37 118 Steve Welburn
In April 2012, Vitae "published":http://www.vitae.ac.uk/policy-practice/375-533141/The-Informed-Researcher-Booklet-and-Information-literacy-lens-on-the-Vitae-Researcher-Development-Framework-out-now.html an information literacy component for the RDF.

bq. Information literacy is an umbrella term which encompasses concepts such as digital, visual and media literacies, academic literacy, information handling, information skills, data curation and data management. Interacting with information is at the very heart of research and informed researchers are both consumers and producers of information.
40 118 Steve Welburn
41 118 Steve Welburn
The RDF component included an information literacy "lens":http://www.vitae.ac.uk/CMS/files/upload/Vitae_Information_Literacy_Lens_on_the_RDF_Apr_2012.pdf.521621.download - mapping information literacy skills onto the RDF researcher model - and an "Informed Researcher Booklet":http://www.vitae.ac.uk/CMS/files/upload/Vitae-The-Informed-Researcher_2012.pdf.530691.download giving guidelines to researchers on evaluating and improving their information literacy.
42 118 Steve Welburn
43 118 Steve Welburn
The RDF Information Literacy lens is largely based on the "Society of College, National and University Libraries":http://www.sconul.ac.uk (SCONUL) "7 Pillars Of Information Literacy":http://www.sconul.ac.uk/groups/information_literacy/seven_pillars.html
44 118 Steve Welburn
45 118 Steve Welburn
Other "Vitae RDF Lenses":http://www.vitae.ac.uk/rdflenses and the more general SCONUL "7 Pillars Of Wisdom":http://www.sconul.ac.uk/publications/newsletter/34/7.pdf may also be of interest.
46 118 Steve Welburn
47 118 Steve Welburn
JISC and the "Research Information Network":http://www.rin.ac.uk (RIN) co-funded the "Research Data Management Skills Support Initiative":http://www.dcc.ac.uk/training/data-management-courses-and-training/skills-frameworks (DaMSSI) at the DCC. This aimed to examine how the Vitae RDF and the SCONUL 7 Pillars Of Information Literacy could be used to improve the planning of data management training, contributing to the development of the Vitae Information Literacy Lens and Informed researcher booklet, above.
48 118 Steve Welburn

The DaMSSI outputs were (from "here":http://www.dcc.ac.uk/training/data-management-courses-and-training/skills-frameworks):
