Submitting and Next Steps
Congratulations! You’ve just finished this workshop.
Research Outputs
Research outputs is an optional section in which you can begin to consider how you will share your research including output types, what repositories will be used, and metadata standards. If you are completing this plan for a grant application or graduate work, providing detailed information here is generally not required. However, it is beneficial to think about for long-term planning!
Next Steps
- When you finish your DMP, consider contributing it to our DMP Database by emailing at rdm@mcmaster.ca or submitting the form.
- We can provide feedback if you click the Request feedback button in DMP Assistant or email us at rdm@mcmaster.ca

- If you have more questions, reach out to us by email or set up an appointment
DMPs are living documents
- As a reminder, schedule a quarterly recurring meeting in Outlook!
- If this is for a funding application, once you get your grant, return to your DMP when you begin research for a more in-depth research plan.
- Share it and talk about it with your students, supervisors, partners, and collaborators!
