The Estonian Doctoral School offers various opportunities for self-development. To choose the ones most suitable for you, we recommend first assessing your field-specific and transferable skills. For this, the European Competence Framework for Researchers comes handy, as it can help you evaluate your skills and identify areas for growth. A good starting point for self-analysis is the requirements of your doctoral programme, which you are expected to meet to obtain your doctoral degree.
Remember, you are not expected to be an expert in all areas. The competence framework is based on the principle of lifelong learning. You can enhance your skills through events organised by the Estonian Doctoral School. In the calendar, labels have been added to all events, indicating which particular skill the event aims to develop most.
