Work package 2: Technical Training

This group reviews the status quo of technical skills training for RTPs in the UK. We identify shortcomings of existing training, missing ingredients, and best practices in the delivery of training. The group identifies and commissions user questionnaires, the creation of new training material and training events.

Open Tasks

These are tasks already defined by the SHAREing Working Groups (WPs). They are published and ready for applications. Applicants interested can apply to take them on . Open Tasks are like mini-projects with clear goals and scope — your role is to help deliver them according to the WP plan.

Suggest a New Task

Have an idea that could benefit SHAREing? Use this option to submit a task proposal. Focus on what. you want to do and why. it matters for SHAREing and the WPs.
Your proposal will be reviewed by the relevant WP. If approved, it will become an Open Task listed on the website, open for anyone to apply. At this stage, there’s no need to include costings or detailed plans — just provide a clear description and show how the task aligns with SHAREing’s goals. The detailed “how” and all necessary paperwork will be part of the formal bid later.

Eligibility: SHAREing tasks are open to all contributors based at UK universities or other organisations eligible for UKRI funding
