Calling all researchers, PGRs and supervisors: Please can you promote this co-produced CPD unit across your networks. We are recruiting for our 3rd cohort starting in April. As an online course, this is open to researchers and public involvement leads across the country. We place particular emphasis on engaging marginalised groups. This is a 20 credit CPD unit delivered over 5 weeks (every Friday).
See here for course information, dates and how to apply.
PGRs are able to apply for a free place as part of the Researcher Development Programme. Applications should still be made through the course page.
The interactive unit involves exploring and evaluating a range of models and approaches to public involvement in research with members of the BU PIER (Public Involvement in Education and Research) Partnership. Specific emphasis will be placed on strategies for engaging and collaborating with marginalised groups and tailoring a strategy and approach to meet your own research needs.
