Online Resources

Our online resources provide an opportunity to learn at a time and place that suits you

Note for continuing PGRs: The University no longer subscribes to the UEA Online Training Series centrally, due to falling demand. Check the Researcher Development Programme listings and Fundamentals of Teaching and Learning webpages for similar sessions, and ask your supervisor or School office about training delivered locally.

Online Researcher Development Programme modules

While we don't record RDP workshops as standard, several of our sessions are available as self-led online modules or as webinar recordings. 

See the Researcher Development Online Canvas site to access a wealth of online resources. 

Vitae Researcher Booklets

All researchers have full access to the Vitae website and resources - register on their website with your Sussex email address.
