## Structure of the course

The main text will provide all the information you need to put the subject into practice. Each chapter will be explored through a combination of text, videos, and exercises to enhance your understanding.

At the end of each chapter, you will complete two exercises:

- One will be integrated into the webpage.
- The other will require you to write down key information, forming a solid foundation for your RDM & Privacy Framework, which will be fundamental to developing your data management plan.

#### Exercise Breakdown:

1. Project-Focused Exercise – You will reflect on your own project, evaluating how the chapter’s topic applies to your work. Think of this as preparation for your data management plan.
2. Quiz or Task – This will test your understanding of the material. If you answer incorrectly, you can retake it until you achieve a perfect score.

The course follows a logical sequence based on the sections of a data management plan. While it is recommended to go through each section in order, you are free to revisit previous sections or jump ahead if you’re eager to explore a particular topic. The key is to ensure you complete all sections and exercises.

Additional resources will be linked throughout the course. If you want to explore a topic deeper, be sure to check these out.
