Secondments

A series of Secondments are planned for the ATWARM researchers.

The intention is that through secondments to other host sites, the mobility of the researchers will be enhanced, providing opportunities for training in complementary and in some cases inter-disciplinary skills. The networking opportunities within the ATWARM programme will be improved.

The majority of secondments will be of 3 months duration, to allow sufficient time for knowledge transfer opportunities. Note that the ERs will have two short (2-4 weeks) secondments – the secondment period reflecting the reduced recruitment duration for the ER compared to ESR.

The ATWARM Project Manager will work with the administrative teams of the Partners to arrange accommodation for the seconded Fellows.  Fellows will be required to cover their own living costs for their seconded period.

A preliminary plan of the Secondments timetable (subject to minor changes) is outlined in the following table:
