Researcher Connect Programme - British Council Portugal

Wednesday, October 9, 2024 - 22:33

British Council Portugal is delighted to invite you to apply to their second edition of Researcher Connect, a highly-reputed training programme that will help you further your research career and better communicate your research and goals.  In an increasingly competitive and globalised market, researchers and the institutions they represent need to communicate their work effectively to an international audience.

Researchers with strong communication skills are more likely to:

  • publish in international journals
  • successfully promote their research and represent their institutions at conferences
  • gain funding from international bodies
  • effectively communicate with the wider public and policy makers
  • build international collaborations to further their research.

In recognition of this need, and building on its vision for prosperity through internationalised education, the British Council has developed the Researcher Connect online professional development course.

Interested researchers must commit to three hours of training (in the afternoons) over two weeks as well as active participation in the training.  All applicants must be active or recently active researchers and we expect the institutions where they are investigating to be supporters of their participation in this programme.

Subject to applications until October 13th, the British Council expects to be able to offer two groups starting on Researcher Connect Online training course for 11-21 November 2024.  All sessions start at 13h PT time.  Please connect 15m in advance.

Further details available on the website Researcher Connect | British Council.  For any questions, please contact education@britishcouncil.es.  If interested, please APPLY HERE.

The course is completely free of cost.
