CHASE Core Training

CHASE Core Training is an annual programme of training and development workshops and is part of the training opportunities available to all arts and humanities doctoral researchers at CHASE institutions.

The main part of the programme is commissioned in response to your Training Needs Survey (CHASE funded doctoral researchers only). Please ensure you have completed the survey by the 31 October.

We cannot arrange for all training requested to take place but the most frequently requested training will be commissioned. The full programme of core training for the year ahead will be available, in full, to view towards the end of the autumn term. Please note that registrations for each training session will be available approximately at the beginning of the month before the event is due to take place (subject to trainer availability). 

All training will be circulated to you by email or via the CHASE monthly bulletin.

If you have any specific questions about CHASE Core Training or your training needs please email training@chase.ac.uk.

Terms and cancellation

By registering for CHASE training events, you are requesting a place on the training programme or selected sessions that form part of the programme.

You will receive confirmation of your place from the booking platform and a member of the CHASE team or the workshop leader will contact you closer to the time to confirm details of how to attend, any necessary preparation prior to the training, and any other key details. However if you are registering close to the time of the event, these details will instead be contained instead the platform’s “booking notification” email.

If you are allocated a place but can no longer attend, please cancel you place via TicketSource or email training@chase.ac.uk.

CHASE training is free to attend and events are often oversubscribed with a waiting list. Failure to notify us of non-attendance in good time (ideally 5 days before the training event) means your place cannot be reallocated. Repeated failure may mean that your access to future training is limited.
