 The
SRA provides a comprehensive programme of training to support the
professional development
of social researchers.
A wide range of Introductory courses
are available which are intended for those who are new to the profession
or to the topic or approach
covered by the course. A grant from the ESRC’s Researcher
Development Initiative (RDI) has enabled us to develop a range
of Advanced expert
development workshops that are aimed at mid-career or senior researchers
who want to stay at the cutting edge of developments
in their profession or develop expertise in new areas of social
research. In addition we are also offering a number of Master
Classes that will offer senior researchers
and research managers the opportunity to critically debate and
discuss
topical issues of relevance to
social research and share knowledge and expertise.
SRA training and professional
development activities are of interest and relevance to social
researchers
no matter what sector or setting
they are working in. Typically courses attract participants from:
central and local government; government agencies; universities,
colleges and research institutes; private sector research companies;
voluntary organisations; and also independent researchers and consultants.
This cross-sectoral approach offers the added benefit of learning
from others’ experiences.
As part of our commitment to regional members we run several of
our courses at various locations around the country such as Leeds,
Birmingham, Edinburgh etc.
SRA Scotland also run a number of training courses in their region
and full details are available on the SRA
Scotland page.
