Skills and training

The Office for Open Research provides comprehensive Open Research skills and training development opportunities through our My Research Essentials (MRE) programme.

We have developed the Open Research Skills Framework to structure our skills and training offer, enabling researchers to identify the elements of Open Research that already form part of their research practice, and the skills necessary to make their research more open and transparent.  

The Office for Open Research implemented the innovative Open Research Fellowship programme, aiming to raise awareness about Open Research and promote its adoption across all parts of The University of Manchester.
