Professional Development Topics for IERs

 

Hi everyone!

Can you help me find some potential topics for professional development workshops that we are planning to organize for Internationally Educated Researchers (IERs)?

Here are some examples:

  • Research project management and research funding
  • Research ethics in the Canadian context
  • Accessing and utilizing open source data
  • Introduction to Canadian labor market data
  • Effective Knowledge Translation Strategies
  • Evaluation
  • Use of social media for professional networking

Thank you!

  • Hello,

    I would say a workshop on qualitative and quantitative analysis would be very helpful.

  • Hi Emal,

    My vote goes to "Research project management and research funding".

    A  workshop on qualitative data analysis using NVIVO would be beneficial too.

    I suggest that the workshops be held online, so that everybody have a chance to attend despite their residential place and busy schedule.

    Best regards

     

    • Dear Ali, 

      I hope you enjoyed the Nvivo Training that we conducted at Access Alliance.
