  • Concordat Code of Practice

    Practice No. 1283

    Last modified: 27/10/2011 11:27:32

    Institution: The Royal Veterinary College

    Researchers are key members of academic staff. They are central to the College’s status as the leading centre for veterinary research in England, as well as its global aspirations. Beyond this, the College recognises that researchers make many other important contributions, for example in undertaking valuable research support, teaching and supervision duties, and as a vibrant group within the wider RVC community.

    Following the launch of the Concordat to Support the Career Development of Researchers, the College developed a Concordat Code of Practice and Guide which demonstrates the Colleges commitment to the provision of timely and effective support for Research Staff and their chosen career paths.

    The courses and workshops outlined in our programme are designed to meet the needs of all groups of staff within the College and offer a wide variety of development opportunities in five key areas:

     

    • Health & Safety

    • Information Technology

    • Leadership & Management

    • Skills & Knowledge

    • Wellbeing

     

    In our 2009/10 training programme, we introduced a section specific to the development of researchers, in response to principle 4 of the Concordat. This section has continued to develop following feedback received from research staff, line managers and principal investigators.

     

    Research staff may also attend any of the other Staff Training & Development courses offered in the programme.
