Training and development

UKRIO undertakes a wide variety of activities tailored to meet the needs of our network of over 120 subscribing institutions, informed by UKRIO’s unmatched practical experience. Our charity aims to provide in-depth and long-term support for its subscribers to support them to authentically embed a culture of research integrity. A key part of this are our training and development activities, some of which are also available to non-subscribing organisations.

We work closely with the research community to understand the fundamental challenges it faces. Our training and development activities are available to everyone involved in research at an organisation, from the senior leadership team to those just starting their research careers.

Training included within a UKRIO annual subscription

  1. Free 12-month pilot access to our new Introduction to Research Integrity online course.
  2. Access to four exclusive training webinars per year, with unlimited places for researchers from subscribing organisations.
  3. Discounted access to training for research ethics committees and training in research ethics for researchers.
  4. Access to exclusive training materials via this website.
  5. One hour of virtual training services per year to meet an organisation’s individual needs:
    • Consultancy/advice from our expert staff to support you to develop and deliver training – or wider research integrity activities.
    • Virtual training session from our expert staff on a variety of topics.

We feel that this package represents great value for our subscribers, given market rates for training services. Subscribing organisations and their researchers can also access our wider events programme and extensive library of recorded sessions.

  • Additional consultancy or virtual training sessions
  • Bespoke virtual training

  • In-person versions of virtual training services
