Training and development

A key part of HDRC Bradford’s work is to support our stakeholders to understand and use research and evidence in their everyday council work. We want to do this in a sustainable way so it becomes the ‘way we do things’ and that everyone feels able to ask ‘what does the evidence say about this?’. We have developed a learning and development approach to develop and apply these skills both personally and professionally. This includes:

  • A wide-ranging training programme that enables to understand research and evidence.
  • A ‘Community of Research’ to support everyone interested in research.
  • Bringing in external academics and experts to support.
  • Supporting staff and stakeholders to develop their research interests, skills, and knowledge while raising the importance of research within the Council.
  • Showcasing council staff and stakeholder’s work
  • Creating networking and collaboration opportunities
