Digital skills training

Our Digital skills training is open to all members of the University.

We have a broad range of content as part of the programme, including our Digital Wednesdays sessions, and themes like Being critical and Learn to code.

Use the filters on the training list to see the sessions currently available.

Digital Wednesdays

Digital Wednesdays

Digital Wednesdays are a range of sessions on various themes outside of our core selection of training. They may have a specialist focus, or they may just be plain out there! The only essential is that they're on a topic that's remotely digital, and at least a little bit fun.

Open Research training

The Open Research team offer training to postgraduate researchers and staff through the Building Research and Innovation Capacity (BRIC) programme.

To book a session go to: SkillsForge - Postgraduate Researchers or LMS - Staff (login required).
