Update your DMP with UCT DMP - Digital Scholar Series+ Online
Need to update your Data Management Plan (DMP) ?
Join DLS as we guide you through every question to update your DMP. As an extra session in our Digital Scholar Series, this hands-on, step-by-step walkthrough will help you update your DMP on UCT DMP.
Please note that in this session we are working with the FULL DMP and so it is for those who have already completed an outline DMP and are now ready to get into the details of their DMP.
After a brief introduction, we’ll go through each question in detail and try to address your discipline-specific concerns. By the end of this session, you might just have a fully completed DMP!

The Digital Library Services (DLS) department of UCT Libraries will be restarting our Digital Scholar Series in the first semester of 2025. We will showcase some of the digital practices and tools available to enhance your research skills, with an ongoing focus on managing your research data efficiently. These sessions are open to all postgraduate researchers and staff working within any field of study at UCT.
Our primary focus in the first half of the year will be on topics covering the beginning stages of the research process, such as data management plans (DMPs) and best practices for efficiently capturing and managing research data. Topics covered deal with the management of digital materials for research (what some of us call ‘data’) and touch on digital topics throughout the research lifecycle. The webinars are aimed at making your digital scholarship more efficient, so that your data gives you less hassle and you have more time to focus on your teaching, learning and research.
After registering for an event, you will receive an email with a calendar invite attached. All sessions will start at 1 PM with the topics and dates listed below. The sessions will be hosted on MS Teams and will last 45 minutes, with an extra 15 minutes for questions or discussions. DLS staff will be present to moderate the chat and to help answer your questions as they come up.
