You will learn about practical tools to time-efficiently increase the significance and reach of your impact without detracting from your PhD research. The training is based on the latest research evidence and takes a unique relational approach to deliver wide-reaching and lasting impacts.

Key benefits:

  • Prioritise stakeholders and publics to engage with first
  • Create a powerful impact plan that will guarantee your research makes a difference without wasting your time

After the workshop, you are invited to an optional free follow-up programme over five weeks, so you can apply what you have learned. You can work through these steps yourself from the handbook, but by signing up to take these steps online, you get access to extra material. Each step consists of a 6 minute video with accompanying text and tasks. Prof Reed continues to answer your questions via email after the course as you work through the material.
