Training and presentations of services offered by FSD

FSD organises training sessions and presentations upon request. These events are tailored to the needs of the requester and can be conducted in Finnish or English. They are free of charge. You can book a training session or presentation through FSD's User Services.

Anonymisation Workshops

FSD offers the opportunity to book an anonymisation workshop that supports data management and the responsible use of research data. The workshop is particularly suitable for researchers, research groups, and experts working with research data in Finland or using FSD's services for data deposits.

The workshop covers anonymisation at a general level, as well as practical methods for applying it to both quantitative and qualitative data. Participants will also engage in hands-on group work using examples of both types of data.

The workshop is delivered online via Teams or Zoom. If required, it can also be held at the client's premises. Experts from FSD provide the workshop content and data examples. The client is responsible for promoting the workshop, managing registrations, and handling technical arrangements such as dividing participants into groups.

Presentations for Students
