As a postgraduate research student, you are required to complete all mandatory training at their required timing. You can track this by carefully reading your Postgraduate Researcher Development Programme (PGRDP) handbook which is available on the portal, under the Research tab. This contains details of all mandatory training- and complete all required training to be completed as you advance through your course. Optional training opportunities are available under the Professional Development tab. We are in the process of increasing the number of activities you can take in PULSE with the upcoming phases including tasks such as registering to transfer registration from MPhil to PhD and changes in your registration status.
