What can you learn in 20 minutes?

The Nature Masterclasses online courses are specifically designed to be used on demand and at your rhythm. They are bite-sized (10-20 minute lessons) so you can dip in and out during natural gaps in your work. Choose your own learning path – whether that is working through a course in order, or dipping in and out of modules. The courses are designed to be interactive with in-lesson activities that will keep you engaged and give you plenty of opportunities to practise using new skills and concepts.

You will learn techniques and strategies to develop your skills and confidence across a range of essential research activities. You’ll be able to apply these skills to your everyday professional life but also leverage them to develop your career.

All full NDPIA members are eligible to apply for a personal code that will give you access to all courses on the Nature Masterclasses on-demand platform. We have a limited number of spots available, and access will be granted on a first come, first served basis. Your access to the courses will start on 2 October, 2023 and be valid until 1 October, 2024.
