Optimizing Research Impact: Establishing and Maintaining Researcher Profiles Online
The ability to effectively track and express your research impact is an essential skill for today’s researchers. Profile tools like ORCID, Google Scholar, and McMaster Experts provide a valuable space to showcase your research outputs (from publications to datasets to creative works) and enable efficient workflows for demonstrating your impact. In this webinar, we will guide researchers through the process of establishing researcher profiles: from initial set-up, to efficient maintenance; to the generation of basic impact reports.
Learning Outcomes: Attendees will learn how to: 1) Select the most appropriate research profile(s) for their needs. 2) Automate the initial population and maintenance of their research profile(s). 3) Generate basic research impact reports using profile data.
Details: Any preparatory work for the session can be found on its information page. This virtual workshop will be recorded and shared on the same page, and discoverable via the Sherman Centre's Online Learning Catalogue.
