Phase 2: `Getting started in Research’ training course
The `Getting Started in Research’ training course is a free, two-day online course designed for HCPs curious about research. It is a great course to attend if you would like to understand more about research in practice. You might have an interest in getting more involved but are not sure how to actually do this, or what the options are.
If so, this course is for you.
In 2025, the course will run online on Thursday 4th December and Thursday 8th January, from 9.30am - 4pm.
Participants will also be invited to join a network of HCPs across the South-Central region who are interested in research in order to share ideas and opportunities, and gain peer support.
