The Marine Environmental Data and Information Network (MEDIN) are pleased to announce that registration is now open for the next occurrence of our popular free online training workshop: ‘Marine Data Management, Governance and the MEDIN toolset’ on the 13th – 17th October 2025 on OceanTeacher Global Academy. To self-enrol, go to the course page on OceanTeacher Global Academy, create an account or log-in, and use the enrolment key: MEDIN102025.

This training course is suitable for anyone responsible for collecting or managing marine environmental data in the public sector, industry or for education or research. Familiarity with different marine data types, and how data is acquired and used, would be helpful but not essential. Prior knowledge or practical experience of data management is not required. This training course also helps to introduce the role of MEDIN, and improve the uptake, knowledge, and use of MEDIN Data Guidelines and the MEDIN Discovery Metadata Standard (and associated tools).

Be empowered as a data champion and consider best practices to improve organisational efficiency in data acquisition, analysis, curation, and sharing with colleagues at your organisation.

If you have any questions, please don’t hesitate to ask Roseanna Wright or Alice Rysiecki More information on the MEDIN training workshop can be found on the MEDIN website.
