UKRI Digital Skills Catalyst
The UKRI Digital Research Skills Catalyst will connect researchers and innovators to a catalogue of CPD training materials through the provision of a dynamic learning portal. The portal will provide a sophisticated search function to enable researchers to easily locate training resources appropriate to their level of expertise, research theme and preferred study mode.

- Streamlined access to all the courses provided by the above DaSH projects
- Detailed pre-requisites and outcomes for courses and materials to help assess learning requirements
- Bookable time slots for one-to-one bespoke guidance with a Digital Research Infrastructure specialist from one of the DaSH projects
- Additional accreditation for new and existing courses to cater for Continuing Professional Development needs
- Occasional in-person workshops and networking events to help address ever evolving training needs
