Research Professional – Updates and Improvements

In order to add updates and improve their funding website, Research Professional will be unavailable on Tuesday 2nd August 2012 from 6 pm.  It is expected that the funding website will be unavailable for at least 4 hours.

The improvements will include:

  • updating the site to prevent your sessions from timing out
  • changing URLs to make them simpler and clearer (don’t worry – old bookmarks and links you have will still work)
  • standardising the behaviour of the ‘back’ button on your web browser
  • speeding up the performance of Research Professional

After this time, if anyone experiences problems accessing or using Research Professional, please contact Susan Dowdle in the first instance.

Research Professional – help shape its search terms

Research Professional is working on a project to improve its usability and they want to make sure that the terms they use on the website are easily understandable to all users. In order to shape the redesign, please fill in this short survey designed by Research Professional which should only take 5 mins, by 1st July. Any feedback you give will be enormously useful  in making the site easier to use.
