Bootcamps

The Third Degree’s Bootcamps provide intensive, interactive learning experiences for researchers seeking to develop practical skills and explore specific aspects of the research journey in greater depth.

Delivered online in small groups, our Bootcamps combine structured learning, practical activities, facilitated discussion and opportunities to engage with experienced academics. Participant numbers are limited to encourage meaningful interaction and personalised engagement.

Unlike our free weekly webinars, Bootcamps offer extended learning opportunities, with a modest participation fee. Participants receive supporting learning materials and a certificate of attendance.

Planned Bootcamps

  • Presenting at Conferences: From Abstract to Delivery to Follow-Up
  • Researching with Children: Ethical, Methodological and Practical Considerations

Dates and registration details will be announced once scheduling is confirmed.
