Bespoke training

We can design a training solution that is the perfect fit for your needs.

NatCen Learning is a leading provider of high-quality flexible training and events, delivering practical insight and skills for social research. We have established a track record for providing high-quality, interactive learning events and effective individual and organisational support.

We provide bespoke training and research support to a range of central government departments, public and voluntary sector bodies, and academic units. Our researchers provide top class insight and have helped a range of organisations in the public, academic and third sectors to develop their knowledge of key methodological issues and capabilities in key research skills. 

We also develop bespoke workshops and tailored training for researchers, practitioners and research teams in all sectors. Drawing our trainers from our research staff team ensures a level of engagement with real world research, innovative methods and contemporary issues which is hard to surpass. 

Our training portfolio offers a range of formats including traditional taught courses, facilitated workshops and discursive knowledge exchange sessions. We place great value on peer learning and encourage delegates to share their own expertise and experiences as well as drawing on the knowledge of our tutors. Training and learning events most commonly involve small to medium sized groups of 10-15 participants, although they can range from large lecture-based events through to one-to-one or small group mentoring.

We can deliver training in the following areas:

  • Contemporary issues in social research 
  • Quantitative research
  • Qualitative research

Prices will vary depending on location, duration and content of the event.
