AOC Agreement and Data Research Society Launch

First, the University has secured an Assured Organisational Connectivity (AOC) agreement with the Office for National Statistics (ONS). This agreement allows our accredited researchers to access high-quality, secure datasets for data-driven research and quantitative research, supporting a wide range of projects in policy, health, social sciences, and beyond.

Second, we are pleased to introduce the Data Research & Quantitative Methods Society (DRQMS), which will bring together researchers, students, and professionals focused on quantitative research, secondary data analysis, and systematic review methodologies. The DRQMS will serve as a platform for collaboration, capacity-building, and knowledge exchange across disciplines.

• Learn about the AOC agreement and the new opportunities it opens up for data research
• Get an introduction to the Data Research & Quantitative Methods Society (DRQMS)
