MVLS training courses for PGR students
These courses are organised and run by the MVLS Graduate School and are classed as internal courses. Once you have attended, the course organiser sends us the class register to add credits to students records. This doesn't always happen right away and can take a few weeks for credits to be added.
Some courses are offered more than once a year, and booking is usually made through My Campus. A list of all courses can be found in your Research Training Handbook.
Most classes are now being held in classrooms.
