Whether you're a seasoned researcher or just starting out, our webinars provide valuable opportunities to reevaluate your working methods, acquire new insights, and boost your researcher skills. Our webinars remain free and accessible to all, regardless of prior knowledge. While the primary audience includes researchers, university staff, and students, anyone with an interest in these subjects is encouraged to join. Each training season introduces entirely new topics, along with updates to our recurring webinars based on your valuable feedback.

Our lectures include interactive segments or a Q&A session at the end. We encourage you to actively participate, pose questions to our experts, and contribute to the discussion. While some sessions may feature specific information regarding Aalto researchers, the fundamental principles presented are often universally applicable.

As a new addition, we can now offer a certificate of participation for some of the training sessions to participants from Unite! universities (incl. Aalto University) in exchange for filling out a Unite! feedback survey after the training.

Join the conversation – we're excited to see you in the autumn training sessions!

Questions about the training and data management can be sent to: researchdata@aalto.fi.
