Dear Colleagues,
Did you know that a majority of UK higher education institutions are Vitae Member Organisations? You can check if your organization is a Vitae Member here: http://bit.ly/1SBQygM
With Vitae membership, everyone based at your organisation, including research staff, postgraduate researchers and those who support their professional development will have full access to our online resources, backed up by our 45 years' experience in the field. If you haven’t already done so, please register to our website now with your organisational email address (http://bit.ly/1SzPUOl)
Additionally, we are currently inviting all members interested in researcher development to attend one of our free networking seminars. Together with interactive discussion on a topical theme, each seminar will include an update on the latest policy news relating to researcher development in the UK and Europe, including:
• Impact of the Green Paper and the Nurse review of RCUK
• Professional doctorates
• PRES consultation
• Reach of the Concordat to Support the Career Development of Researchers
• Enhancing the HR Excellence in Research Award
• Open, transparent and merit-based recruitment (OTMR)
• Horizon 2020 cross-cutting issues
You will also get a chance to contribute to the development of the Vitae 2016/17 programme through discussion of what the key priorities are for developing researchers in your institution; share practice and meet colleagues from around the region and the UK.
