Skills and Training Network

The UKCRIC Skills and Training Network offers an opportunity for postgraduate students, post doctoral researchers from UKCRIC institutions as well as those in the early stage of their careers in industry, to meet and exchange ideas, support each other and gain skills to develop their careers as engineers of the future.

The Skills and Training Network, formally the Doctoral Skills Network, has been established and expanded to include early career industry associates as well doctoral students from UKCRIC member institutions. UKCRIC values the mutual benefits of providing a platform for learning and knowledge exchange between those that have chosen academic careers and those that have gone on to work in industry. UKCRIC’s Skills and Training Network hosts and curates webinars and training workshops and provides links to other research support groups such as ERA, C-DICE and the Faraday Institute.

For recent graduates and early career industry associates UKCRIC’s Skills Training Network offers:

• A subscription to the UKCRIC Skills and Training Network (STN) (sign up to the Skills and Training Network email list required)
• Opportunity to attend online and in-person skills events and relevant conferences
• Curation and amplification of relevant skills events and opportunities in the STN newsletter and via social media
