Standard Vocabularies

The need to share data and research products is essential to enable research collaboration and promote wide access to data and data products. However, this can only be achieved if a common ‘language’ is used. In this short course, we provide a short overview of what data standards are, where to find common (data) vocabularies and the importance of metadata.

This is a self-paced course (no facilitators support available). Since there is no evaluation, a certificate will not be issued.
