This 5-part online training is aimed at PhD candidates and postdocs from the humanities and social sciences.

The elements of this training build up on one another.
 
Part 1: Defining your strengths and skills.
Part 2: Exploring future possible selves.
Part 3: Practicing self-presentation skills.
Part 4: Matching your academic skills with future job requirements.
