Professional development for researchers
We are delighted to announce that Researcher Connect Online 2023-24 is now open for applications from France.
Researcher Connect is a training opportunity for researchers which promotes the development of excellent communication skills for international, multicultural academic contexts. The aim is to enhance the productivity of individual researchers and, in turn, provide their universities and research institutions with a competitive advantage in the fast moving international research environment.
We are inviting 30 early career researchers from France alongside Jordan researchers who:
1. Can effectively communicate in English (B2 level or above)
2. Are practising researchers, at the beginning of their research career (up to 5 years after a PhD) or recent PhD graduates with inclusive participation based on gender, ethnicity, and geographical difference and can commit to the training schedule (this is a two-week training programme, three hours Monday-Thursday, each week)
3. Can confirm that their research organisation/university is permitting their attendance (an attendance certificate will be awarded at the end of the training)
Dates and time:
The course consists of two weeks training (3hrs per day for two weeks Monday to Thursday). There are two separate workshops at the dates below:
Workshop 1: weeks of 11 and 18 December - from 9.00 to 12.00 (CET) - this workshop is now complete
Workshop 2: weeks of 15 and 22 January - from 13.00 to 16.00 (CET)
The call for applications in 2023 is now closed. We will update this page as soon as a new session opens in 2024.
