Training & Development Resources for Research Administrators

Training & Development Resources for Research Administrators

Research Training, in collaboration with Sponsored Projects, the Office of Research Contracts, and various compliance units offers an extensive program of workshops to help research administrators and research support staff.

If you are interesting in having a research administration workshop presented for your unit, please contact the Research Training Team at Research-Training@email.arizona.edu. We can help coordinate with specific units for tailored training and deliver specialized training by request.

Research Administrator Forum, Listserv, and Research Organization Admin Report (ROAR)

Research Training facilitates a monthly Research Administration (RA) Forum which hosts speakers on pertinent topics, provides training and development opportunities to campus, and communicates opportunities and upcoming changes to processes, policies, and systems.

Research Organization Admin Report (ROAR) is a monthly newsletter from Research Training to outline upcoming deadlines, provide tips and tricks, system updates, and other information relevant to Research Administration and Compliance.

Research Training and Sponsored Projects also moderate the RAMTalk email listserv, which notifies subscribers of training, events including the monthly RA forum, funding announcements, policies, procedures and other research related communications.
