ISED's 'Introduction to Research Security' Course Now Available on CourseLink
The Government of Canada through Innovation, Science and Economic Development (ISED) developed the 'Introduction to Research Security' course to better equip Canadian researchers with knowledge and resources to protect their research. Canada’s world-leading research is generated through open and collaborative processes that benefit all Canadians. As a result of its excellence, Canadian research and innovation can be targeted by those who will go to any means to access, steal and benefit from this research. This course introduces learners to why research security matters and some core competencies that will help them further understand why researchers and their work benefit from an enhanced understanding of research security.
The course has now been embedded within CourseLink for ease of use. To access it, log in to CourseLink, navigate to the Self Registration Tab, and scroll down to 'Introduction to Research Security (Research Security Centre)'. It can be freely accessed by all students, staff and faculty.
