Supervisor Training 2023

Supervisors of SGSAH DTP and CDA funded students must attend one Supervisors’ Induction workshop led by SGSAH. This is mandatory for supervisors who have not completed one of our supervisor training sessions in the last three years. Supervisors are asked to reserve a place prior to the nomination being submitted.

The SGSAH AHRC Supervisor Training sessions for 2023 took place in September. The dates for our 2024 Supervisor Training sessions are still to be announced.
