Where can I find training opportunities and/or learning and teaching materials on the topic of RDM?

The topic of research data management (RDM) is diverse. For those looking for general (generic) information, we have compiled a list of helpful resources here. Subject-specific information on RDM in agrosystem research can be found directly here in our Knowledge Base.

Many aspects of RDM can be easily learned independently. In addition to the above-mentioned information resources, there are also learning materials for self-study and teaching resources for the further training others. There is also the option of participating in training sessions in the field of RDM.

Training opportunities

FAIRagro organises various trainings (some in collaboration with different partners). An overview of upcoming training events - both our own and other relevant courses - can be found in the training calendar on the FAIRagro website.

If you have any questions about training, please take a look at the Trainig & Education section on our website or get in contact with our training coordinator or the helpdesk.

In April 2026, as part of our FAIRagro FDM training programme, we conducted and recorded a 4-hour online training session (in English). The video and accompanying materials have been published under the title “From Field Data to FAIR Data: How to Manage Your Agrosystem Research Data - Trainingmaterial”1.

You can find more details on this in the Training Handbook in the “Example Trainings” chapter.

Training Handbook

To make it easier to create your own discipline-specific training sessions, we have developed a Training Handbook. Among other things, it includes a step-by-step guide that helps you design, compile, and conduct agriculture-specific RDM trainings using our modular training materials. In addition, this handbook includes several OERs related to specific example FAIRagro training sessions, as well as a selection of additional learning and teaching materials that may be relevant to the agricultural research community.
