Description
This session is suitable for ECR and PGR only. It will be an online
session via Teams.
The session is run by the Prosper Team from the University of
Liverpool. Details are outlined below:
The session will highlight, via Prosper Portal resources and practical
examples, the scope of competencies that early career researchers have
which make them suited to a wide range of careers.
During this session, participants will:
- Recognise the breadth of skills and competencies postdocs and PGRs
develop, how these are transferable and valued across a wide range of
sectors – including beyond academia.
- Explore the concept of ‘squiggly’ careers by considering case studies
of early career researchers who have found success in non-traditional
pathways.
- Consider how they can develop their own definitions of career success
and become aware of Prosper resources which can help them to explore
career pathways tailored to their own needs, both within and beyond
academia.
This session will be interactive, and offer recommended actions to
encourage participants to put into practice the learning outcomes from
the session.
