Can't make the date of a particular workshop?

Many of our workshops are repeated in the second semester. We don't typically record our sessions as they are usually interactive and sometimes involve people sharing personal examples or questions. If you want to check whether a particular workshop will be repeated later in the year, please email pgrtraining@swansea.ac.uk.
