<ul style="margin:0;padding-left:36pt;">
<li><b>Description: </b>This workshop aims to present brief overviews of key international RDM education efforts with a synthesizing overview of research progress in this area. Helen Tibbo will report on “Research Data Management and Sharing.” the MOOC (Massively
Open Online Course), produced by the CRADLE project-- (cradle.web.unc.edu) – and the University of Edinburgh’s MANTRA (datalib.edina.ac.uk/mantra) program. CRADLE is an IMLS (Institute of Museum and Library Services)-funded project undertaken by the School
of Information and Library Science and the Odum Institute at the University of North Carolina at Chapel Hill. CRADLE partnered with MANTRA to produce a MOOC that is relevant to librarians, archivists, and other information professionals tasked with research
data management and preservation as well as to researchers themselves. This is the first international MOOC on data management, curation, and preservation and can be found at: <a href="https://www.coursera.org/learn/data-management"><font color="#0563C1"><u>https://www.coursera.org/learn/data-management</u></font></a>.
Tibbo will also report on a project to provide disciplinary data profiles to support the MOOC and make it more relevant to researchers in a number of fields. </li></ul>

<div style="padding-left:36pt;">William Kilbride will talk about the DPC’s “Getting Started” and “Making Progress” workshop series and discuss how fundamental preservation concepts are essential to RDM plans and training and lead the panel in a discussion of
