Example: ACTION 2011

Elizabeth Scanlon spoke about ACTION 2011, a scheme that encouraged researchers to engage with enterprise training by using the Societal Challenge Theme of Sustainability.

Here’s a PDF of her slides.

ACTION 2011 participants said great things about the scheme, including this postgraduate student’s awareness of the skills they had not otherwise had the opportunity to develop:

“From ACTION 2011 I have experienced the business-side of scientific research, which is important for all scientists to understand and this is something I can apply to my Doctorate and in my future career.”
