Training and Development Opportunities
The opportunities below offer a range of different disciplines, formats and approaches to training and development led by CHASE students and faculty. These include one-off conferences, a series of seminars or workshops and masterclasses.
Often very bespoke, they offer a high level of specialism and focus. Regular open calls for training proposals mean that the calendar of events is always developing and changing and we encourage you to check back regularly for new events.
The events will also be announced and advertised in the CHASE monthly bulletin.

This month, Broadly Conceived are holding an informal book-club style conversation, inviting scholars from any discipline to discuss what is still one of the most controversial repro-related decisions: to not have children.
Whether you have attended our online seminars, or this is your first encounter with us, you are warmly invited you to join in at the University of East Anglia for this five-day programme.
In this two day workshop we want to explore ways of managing this ‘secondary trauma’ for researchers, drawing on our own experiences and practices and those of the experienced researchers who will lead the individual sessions.
