Is this course right for me?

Target Audience: Departmental, School or Faculty Staff involved in REF2021 decision making.

 As part of the REF2021, the REF team must provide training to all those involved in decision making. This mandatory training will cover equality and diversity and unconscious bias, how these might play out in REF decisions, and how bias can be mitigated.

No final decisions relating to output selection and allocation, impact case study selection, or staff identification and circumstances for REF2021 can be made until this training has been completed.

This training is only for staff members who have been contacted by the REF team or their Head of Department/School and asked to register.  Each session will cover the same information.  You should only book on to one session.

If you have any queries regarding the training, please don’t hesitate to contact the REF Team at refteam@strath.ac.uk.
