We would like to bring to your attention an exciting, free of charge, professional development programme Researcher Connect that is offered for the fifth consecutive year in Greece. We would strongly encourage you to forward this email to relevant people in your institutions and encourage them to register as soon as possible as the number of places is limited.
Short description and format
Researcher Connect online 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.
It is offered as a series of modules, delivered through an online workshop format by experienced and quality-assured trainers. It is designed specifically for early career researchers, although certain aspects would also be of benefit to more experienced members of the research community. It consists of various modules such as Presenting with Impact, Academic Collaboration, Digital Researcher, Generative AI in Research and others. More information is available in the brochure of the programme attached.
Participation is free of charge.
We are delighted that we can offer this opportunity again and we’re inviting researchers from Greece and Spain to join this round.
