Training and development

4Ps Taster Session 2019

For more information on any of our #MakeSpace4Research events you can email us at [email protected]

The 4Ps programme

The 4Ps programme has been developed by nurses, midwives and allied health professionals at Newcastle Hospitals to support your needs regardless of where you are on the “research interested” to “aspiring clinical academic” continuum.

This is a welcoming jargon-free modular programme. The four modules are Place, Project, Person and Plan, and they provide you with the skills, knowledge and confidence to move forward with research.

The starting point for the programme is our pre-requisite foundation session.

The programme is delivered by a range of NMAHP clinical-academic colleagues, and with input from relevant organisations including the research design service, patient and public involvement panels, universities and funders.

YES! Early research support group

Sessions last one hour, with 30 minutes set aside for a spotlight session delivered by one of our RDI fellows and the rest for you to chat about research, inspire and support.

All sessions are available for nurses, midwives and allied health professionals in Newcastle Hospitals and are held on Microsoft Teams.

Sign up through our Eventbrite page

Doctoral support group

Our doctoral support group is a great opportunity for those on doctoral training pathways (PhD or Prof Doc) to share experiences, learn from and support each other on the doctoral pathway.

All sessions are held on Microsoft Teams for one hour. On some occasions 30 minutes will be set aside for a spotlight session with the remainder a sounding board for challenges, experiences, processes, presentation practice or just generally bouncing ideas around for pieces of work/funding applications/publications etc.

Please email the NMAHPs Research team [email protected] for details.
