Choosing the resources relevant to you

[c]

This section contains a collection of guidelines, case studies and associated resources relating to Professional Development.

The material is intended primarily for Research Team Leaders.  Some elements are also of relevance to research team members and this is indicated where appropriate.

Understanding Researchers’ Career Development (Word Document) contextualises the researcher’s motivation towards their role and towards continuing professional development and is a useful start point for all Research Team Leaders.

If you are fairly new to Research Team Leadership, you may find it helpful to complete the self-review checklists before accessing the materials provided. The checklist is designed to help you quickly find the guidance, case studies and resources of most immediate relevance to you, although of course you may, at some point, wish to browse generally through them all!

If you are an experienced Research Team Leader you find it useful to simply refer to the following sections, which provide new ideas about how to help researchers identify their professional development needs and which provide up-to-date information about relevant training providers.
