    The objective of the ReaL programme is to act as competence support for researchers at different stages of their careers, which includes:

    • learning and developing skills regarding leadership, especially focusing on research leadership
    • supporting the development of successful research environments, both existing and future environments
    • supporting your individual career development and continuing academic growth.

    A specific goal of the initiative is to focus on you as a research leader and develop your ability to combine a high level of creativity with good research leadership.

    The programme is divided into three steps depending on where you are in your career, and each step adds to the other. This means that you can choose to participate in only one of the steps, but also that you can take all of them.
