Aim of the programme: 

The aim of the Early-Stage Researcher Induction Programme is to enable post-doctoral researchers who are at an early stage of their development, to identify the capabilities and knowledge needed to orientate themselves within, and navigate ways through, the research ecosystem. 

This is aimed at post-doctoral researchers, and researchers returning to research after a break who are interested in expanding their awareness of the wider research ecosystem to inform decision-making about emerging and/or developing research careers.  

Less useful if… 

This is less likely to be useful to mid-career researchers, those looking for specific guidance on writing research funding bids, academic promotions, or job applications. 

Learning Hours:

This programme takes approximately 16 learning hours. This includes any pre-course/programme work, attendance at workshops, experiential (‘on-the’job’) learning, coaching and post-course/programme work.
