What participants say about our training

“The course was jam packed full of content and actionable points/ideas that you can do straight away to improve your publication success.”

Liz Hughes, Daphne Jackson Trust, UK

“I really liked that I got to see the whole process of publishing a paper from a distant point of view. When you are in the process of publishing a paper, you usually get lost in the details and this course helped me to distance myself from that and to focus on the main points. ”

Participant, ZI Mannheim, Germany

“The course really opened my eyes to other ways of publishing other than just choosing the journal suggested by my supervisor.”
