About the Event

The ARDC would like to invite you to the “1, 2, 3 of Data Sharing Agreements” webinar, where you’ll learn about our recently created guidance document on data sharing agreements (DSAs).

The document was created in light of the many queries we’d received around DSAs. We’ll introduce the document and give advice and support on its application. There will also be time to ask questions.

We’ll also have speakers from UNSW and Swinburne University telling us about their experience with DSAs and providing practical examples and advice for creating one.

Join us to learn the 1, 2, 3 or even the 4, 5 and 6 of DSAs.

This webinar is brought to you in collaboration with the Australian Sensitive Data Interest Group.
