Thought you might be interested to hear that Vitae are running a free one day event for research staff in Manchester on the 29 March to explore careers in academia: http://www.vitae.ac.uk/researchers/188181-188931/Advancing-in-academia-.html. It is specifically for members of research staff who want to have an academic career or are exploring academia as one of their career options. This event addresses how to succeed in a competitive and complex research environment and will allow you to think about the pros and cons of different career options available. Review where you are in your career, where you want to be and how to get there and develop an action plan to strategically manage your career. You'll be able to meet with successful academics from a range of disciplines to hear how they advanced their academic career as well as with researchers in a similar position and with similar ambitions to you.
thanks,
Tennie
