3-year review of UK progress with implementation of the Concordat to Support the Career Development of Researchers (2011)

08/06/2011

UniversitiesUK, Research Councils UK, HEFCE and other research funders jointly invited CRAC to review progress made nationally in implementing the Concordat. This agreement enshrines principles for human resources, career support and training for research staff. The review was deliberately constrained to utilise only existing sources of data and information, to avoid placing additional burdens on participating organisations. Meta-analysis of universities' implementation plans and reports supported comparative analysis of national surveys (which CRAC routinely analyses and reports).
