Overview: Other Career Aspects

Introduction

The Other Career Aspects sub-category provides for any other career orientated information to be listed which has not already been covered in the Career / Employment Profile sub-category or the Institutional Leadership & Administration sub-category.

There is no restriction on the total number of entries you may add. Each entry requires a minimum of the Title and Keywords field to be completed.

Existing entries may be edited / updated subsequently, if required, or deleted.

Entries may be manually sorted into a logical order which will be used when generating CVs and displaying on websites.

Each subsequent entry on this page will be listed in a new row and will be displayed alternately in a blue / black font colour. This formatting is only used within the Researcher Profile context and purely for ease of visual display of multiple entries.
