We are currently looking for two new Convenors for the BERA Postgraduate Forum

Those interested in being a Convenor should:

  • Be currently or recently (within 2 years) engaged in a Doctorate, Masters or other postgraduate programme of study with a substantial educational research element.
  • Be a member of BERA or willing and able to join BERA.
  • Be enthusiastic, a good communicator and networker and in a position to offer time to establishing and growing the role.

Benefits to Convenors currently include:

  • Free BERA Conference registration;
  • Expenses for Forum-related activity;
  • Shaping the educational research community and BERA’s support for it.
