HR Strategies for Researchers: future directions and good practice across Europe
Eight years after the European Charter and Code for the Recruitment of Researchers was launched at the UK Presidency conference in London, this timely event will explore:
- European Commission strategy for implementation of the European Charter and Code in the context of the European Research Area and the feasibility study for a European certification mechanism for good HR management of researchers
- a new report to be launched at the event comparing HR Excellence in Research implementation plans published across Europe
- experiences and good practice from institutions with the HR Excellence in Research Award, including the 2-year internal review process
- next steps and future plans
The outcomes of this event will inform the feasibility study currently being undertaken into the scope of an accreditation mechanism for HR management of researchers.
The event will be chaired by Professor Trevor McMillan, Pro Vice Chancellor for Research, Lancaster University and on behalf of the UK panel assessing UK submissions for the HR Excellence in Research Award.
Stefaan Hermans, Head of Skills Unit, DG Research and Innovation, European Commission will provide the opening keynote on the European strategies for enhancing HR management for researchers.
