ACU Library’s Research Engagement team are running their Research Essentials skills sessions again in 2025.
Researchers and HDR students are encouraged to keep an eye on the Library training and events page and sign up to any and all sessions of interest.
In response to feedback, many of our sessions have been broken into shorter sessions, focusing on a single concept. All are delivered online and will be recorded. All sessions listed are in NSW/ACT/VIC time zones.
You can view previous Research Essentials sessions here.
Learn about read and publish agreements which aim to make your research more open.
These sessions will focus on planning how you manage your research data throughout your project, looking at your sensitive data and how to make your data Findable, Accessible, Interoperable and Reusable (FAIR).
If you are about to start a systematic review or are wanting to structure your search, these sessions can assist you.
Metrics help you measure your research performance and attention and are useful in grant submissions and applications for promotion.
Metrics 100 will look at metrics for journals, authors and articles.
Metrics 200 will review who is citing your work, as well as benchmarking using InCites and SciVal.
Measuring research impact will look at how to demonstrate your impact beyond citation metrics. This is useful for all researchers, but particularly for those in HASS disciplines
