UKRN Train-the-Trainer Courses

Help accelerate the uptake of Open Research by becoming a UKRN-accredited trainer!

The train-the-trainer courses provided through the UKRN Open Research Programme will give participants the knowledge and skills to deliver training in open research practices at the university, with pedagogical and administrative support from your ORCA (open research coordinator/administrator). All courses are UKRN accredited and free to attend. Where costs apply these will be covered by the university.

After attending a UKRN train-the-trainer course participants are expected to:

  1. Develop and share with your ORCA a plan for the training you will deliver as a result of attending the course.
  2. Deliver the training agreed in your plan.
  3. Evaluate and report on the training you deliver as part of your plan.
  4. Join an open research training community of practice.

Further guidance on how to meet these expectations and the support available will be provided on registration.
