Expert training in European Research Programmes

ImageSingleimage is the leading international provider of practical training for the European Union’s Research Framework Programme (FP7).

Our workshops: 

• present clear, useful information, and avoid the myths and complexity that too often surround the Programme

• provide a real learning experience through exercises and feedback sessions, not just a day full of lectures

• and are built on a solid foundation of experience and expertise, allowing in-depth discussion as necessary.


The workshops are aimed at research managers and administrators, project managers and contracts officers who have to deal with the practicalities of FP7, not the politics.  Our customers have research interests ranging from agronomy to zoology, from nanotechnology to nuclear engineering. They are universities and institutes, multi-national companies and start-ups, and agencies who promote participation in FP7. And they come from every European country, so you can learn in an international environment.  

The workshops are held every month in Cambridge, regularly in Pisa, Italy and by invitation at many other locations across Europe. You can choose an event from the schedule, or contact us to arrange a workshop at your location.  All our workshops are given in English.
