training workshops
for postgraduate researchers

Various aspects of research require visuals to aid communication. The workshops/seminars described here cover all aspects of visual presentation of research. Workshops can be delivered FACE-to-FACE, by WEBINAR, or a licence can be purchased for a RECORDED SUITE OF SEMINARS.

Included in this resource are practical exercises interspersed throughout the videos for interactive learning, a free handout summarising each topic, case studies to illustrate each topic and a certificate at the end to show you have completed the suite of workshops.
Mhairi has also facilitated a number of other workshops including the
“Creative Enlightenment” programme through the Scottish Graduate School
for Arts and Humanities, the Eastbio workshop for science PhD students, “Leadership and Entrepreneurship - Using an enterprising mind set to get things done” and The Venture Enterprise Programme for The University of Dundee.
For more information about the workshops download the workshop brochure or e-mail mhairi@vivomotion.co.uk. Workshops can be tailored to suit specific student cohorts.
“The workshop was very helpful. I learned a lot of do’s and don’ts for poster presentations. Very interactive and interesting.”
