THIS EVENT IS NOW ARCHIVED AND AVAILABLE ON DEMAND

It is recognized internationally that coaching researchers who are early in their career is a top priority, but far too often it seems to slip through the cracks; not because it is so hard to do, but because it often requires individual attention and is therefore a time and resource consuming process. In this webcast Emeritus Professor Alan Johnson presents unique insights into how you can help your early career researchers advance their career with a few efficient, effective, and well planned steps.

We would like to invite you to take this opportunity to ask Professor Alan Johnson in person for advice on guiding your early career researchers.

Who should attend this webcast? Anyone who is interested in helping their researchers advance their careers, such as: Faculty Research Coordinators, Directors of Research, Deans of Graduate School, Senior Graduate School Staff, University Administrators. In addition Deputy Vice Chancellors may want to forward this invitation to appropriate staff members.
