Contract Researcher (CoRe) Skills for Research Staff

This stream of Continuing Professional Development (CPD) activities has been specifically designed to support research staff and early career academics to improve their research capability and widen their employability. Workshops are also available on the Academic Staff Development Programme (ASDP).

CoRe Skills includes a suite of resources, materials and development opportunities for Research Staff informed by the Researcher Development Framework (RDF) (PDF, 352 KB).

All this is available free of charge to all research staff and early career academics at the University.
