About the Creative Communications workshops and seminars

Want to learn how to make your research more accessible to a wider audience? This seminar and workshop series can help you create digital communications that really appeal to your audience.

During the seminars and workshops our experts will lead you through the process of developing creative communications that appeal to your chosen audience.

Seminars will focus on how to identify your audience, how to reach them, and how to create innovative digital communications to appeal to the audience.

Workshop attendees will work in teams to develop key messages and communications about their research. By the end of the series teams will have a finished product that can be used to communicate their research, and the skills to do it again.
