If you would like bespoke training for a specific project or group, then please contact us with your requirements and we would be happy to discuss what we can do for you.

  • All of our self-paced courses can be completed in the researcher’s own time
  • Courses are short and designed to fit around a busy research & teaching schedule
  • Certificates are awarded on completion of each course

Both students and staff are already completing our courses and we are in the process of creating more.
