Workshop and seminar program
The Research Education and Development (RED) Team, based in the Graduate Research School (GRS), curates the RED Program: workshops and seminars to support the development of researchers across all disciplines within the University. The Program includes the following themes: research skills, academic writing and publication, research communication, career planning and development, managing supervision, research funding, engagement and impact.
The RED Program incorporates offerings from academic members of the RED Team as well as colleagues from across the University and external providers. The RED Team also collaborates with Schools and Departments to tailor workshops across our campus network as needed.
Stay up-to-date with the latest offerings in the RED Program by signing up for the Graduate Research Scholar newsletter. Additionally, stay in the loop regarding Digital Research courses, drop-ins and events by signing up for the digital research news.

Weekly
Shut up and write! (SUAW)—Weekly facilitated writing sessions are designed to help researchers get their writing done! SUAW sessions happen every day of the week, mostly via Zoom. They're open to all researchers and hosted by the RED team and other researchers across the La Trobe network. We use the Pomodoro technique of focused 25-minute writing sprints interleaved with short breaks.
How to sign up
To participate in our Shut up and Write! (SUAW) writing sessions, please email red.grs@latrobe.edu.au to sign up for the mailing list.
