Brochure
The European Certificate in Research Management is a training program targeted for practitioners in research management and administration. It is taught in a combination of workshops and self-study and is designed to be taken in parallel with a regular day job in entities such as Research Performing Organisations (RPOs), Research Funding Organisations (RFOs), Research Consultancy Companies and other research support service providers.The Certificate in Research Management is a work based accreditation awarded by Awards for Training and Higher Education (ATHE) and delivered in collaboration with Association of Research Managers and Administrators (ARMA). There are 5 mandatory units and at least 1 optional unit to earn the Certificate in Research Management. The mandatory units are held as one-day physical workshops in October, April/May and October, and you will attend three gatherings during the training.
Each year we enrol between 12 and 20 new participants in the program, so this is also a unique opportunity for you to build your network of European colleagues of Research Managers and Administrators.
We recommend that you have at least 3-4 years’ experience as a research manager or administrator before signing up for this training program. You should be prepared to undertake at least 180 hours of study, including workshops, mentoring and self-guided learning, reading, research and preparation of written assignments to each unit. You should also get involved in the collaboration with your fellow participants and complete the required documentation of your progress.
You should identify a mentor for the period of the study. The mentor should be an experienced research manager who can act as a professional adviser and discussion partner. The mentor should not be your line manager; we recommend that you identify someone from outside your organisation. EARMA can help you identify a mentor if needed.
