DSpace Training Materials

Below is a comprehensive set of training materials currently available for the DSpace platform. There are two tables below for training materials.

 

Table 1: The DSpace Course
This course is suitable for DSpace administrators and developers, with the choice of modules being dependent on the people taking the course. The course tutor can mix-and-match the modules to create a custom course. Each module comes with a set of PowerPoint slides, and an associated student workbook. The course has been successfully taught in the UK and Italy.

The course has been written by Stuart Lewis (DSpace committer, developer and trainer), Chris Yates (DSpace developer, support provider and trainer) and has benefited from input by Claudia Jurgen (DSpace committer, developer and trainer).

 

Table2: Additional materials developed by the DSpace community.
