Opportunities for researchers

AccessEd works with universities to help their graduates and post graduates have an impact on the world around them.  We do this by providing opportunities to develop their skills and ability to contribute to the world around them, either by volunteering in our programmes or through special CPD programmes especially developed with your university.

Post-Graduate Students & Researchers

We are expanding the ways PhD, MSc and early career researchers can work with our organisation. These include opportunities for classroom teaching, curriculum development, Continuing Professional Development (CPD) and public engagement. As well as having a social impact, our programmes help researchers to develop the knowledge and skills to develop their career in academia or beyond.  You can:

• See our tutoring programmes below
• Share AccessEd below with your university so they can help us introduce an AccessEd programme to your university!
• Register with us for student/researcher opportunities as we grow

Universities & Institutions

Work directly with universities and university hubs internationally to design programmes that develop and up-skill your MSc, PhD and post-graduate researcher community as well as increase their ability to thrive post-degree. 

• LeadUni: our series of courses that range from Orientation in the UK to Social Impact and Leadership to Employability Skills for your post-graduates; we have entire curricula or packages of themed courses that help increase student confidence, skills and ability to have social impact post-degree.

• GrowUni: We are looking for UK universities interested in building an international offer with the ability to tap into our global network for international researcher development opportunities. For international universities, see existing work below or contact us.

• ReachUni: We work with UK universities on their widening participation strategy through digital innovation projects and special curriculum boosters focusing on state schools and students that are harder to engage.
