University of Portsmouth Research and Innovation Staff Development

For all University of Portsmouth Research and Academic Staff

<p>This online course is now fully booked.  Please click &#x27;Register&#x27; to join the waiting list.  We will contact you when places become available.  </p><p>Description</p><p>We are pleased to announce that staff now have access to an online Research Grant Writing course, to be accessed at their own pace. The course consists of a range of short video lectures and learning materials, developed and delivered by Andrew Derrington*, who has delivered many successful, high-quality workshops for us over a number of years. </p><p>The course draws on Andrew&#x27;s experience as a science journalist, and explains his design for a Case for Support, the main document of a grant application, that answers the important questions that every research funder considers when deciding whether or not to award a grant. Importantly, Andrew’s design ensures that the Case for Support answers the questions in a way that suits both the referees, who are experts on your research topic with plenty of time to analyse your Case for Support, and committee members, who know very little about your research topic and have almost no time to read your Case for Support, but who actually make the funding decision.</p><p>The workshops explain the approach, its rationale, and the specifications of a set of key sentences, which form the framework of the Case for Support for a project grant. The workshops also discuss how to create key sentences to support other types of grant, such as fellowships.  These workshops are even more useful for senior academics than they are for early career researchers because the design for the case for support makes it possible to write multiple applications very efficiently. </p><p>We are pleased to be able to offer 100 places to the self-paced individual workshops, to all research staff enabling access for a week to video lectures and learning materials, to be covered at their own pace. </p><p></p><h3>More information about this workshop:</h3><p><a href="https://drive.google.com/file/d/1ApBR-hWpPdlI-4QjjM8np2l8k4QPCtFF/view" target="_blank" data-msys-clicktrack="0" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer">https://drive.google.com/file/d/1ApBR-hWpPdlI-4QjjM8np2l8k4QPCtFF/view</a></p><p></p><p>*Andrew was a successful academic who wrote grant applications that funded his research continuously from when he finished his PhD until when he became Dean of Social Sciences at the University of Kent, and was too busy to do research. He was also a member of grants committees for fifteen years and participated in the funding decisions on several thousand grant applications.</p><h3></h3><h3>Important Information:</h3><p>1. The self-paced course is equivalent to the learning that would be undertaken in one day of training but can be accessed over a period of 7 days.</p><p>2. On registering with the code, you will have access to the materials for a total of 7 days - after that point, the materials and resources will no longer be available to you. Please ensure you only register when you are ready to commence the course.</p><p>3. By registering the code to access the course, we will record you as having &#x27;attended&#x27;. At some point after your 7 day access, you will be sent a course feedback form to complete. </p><p>4. There are a limited number of course vouchers - once these have all been claimed, the course will close completely. </p><p>5. This online course is being delivered by an external provider. Whilst the cost of delivery and facilitation is covered by the University, as part of the Research and Innovation Development Programme, <strong>we request that those booking a place ensure they are committed to finish the course by the end of November</strong>.</p><p></p><h3>You will receive a personalised voucher code and instructions on how to access the course materials by email after you have registered.</h3><h3></h3><p>If you have any questions about this event, please contact risdevelopment@port.ac.uk</p>
