How to book your training
All Graduate School training events are bookable through the University’s MyFuture platform. Once you have logged in to MyFuture, go to Events, and in the search bar enter 'GRADUATE' to search all Graduate School training and events.
Any training you have booked through MyFuture and have attended will be automatically added to your training record. Should you require this to be completed for a particular deadline, for example if you are preparing for differentiation or APR, please contact us at pg.skills@qub.ac.uk to discuss your requirements.
Research students can also record other instances of training and development on their training plan. Details on how to do this and more information on recording your training can be found HERE.

The Graduate School works with postgraduate students, staff and external partners to offer opportunities for our vibrant postgraduate community to come together to learn, network and gain the skills that make our graduates stand out in a competitive professional environment.
This Code of Conduct has been established to set out the respect and professionalism expected of all Queen’s postgraduate students with respect to their personal, professional and academic skills development and learning, and the responsibilities undertaken by The Graduate School to make this a welcoming, valuable and impactful experience for all postgraduate students.

Preparing you for an unknown future
We encourage our students to have the ability, the confidence and the intellectual flexibility to face any challenge.
We are a community of learning and research but also a hothouse for producing future leaders and innovators in a multitude of sectors, from industry, academia and policy, to the creative, charity and commercial sectors.
We nurture disruptive thinking through the transdisciplinary ethos that underpins everything we do, but this is complemented by focused programmes providing you with everything from leadership skills, careers advice, and access to employers and alumni, to professional qualifications and university-accredited programmes that mark your engagement in activity beyond your Master’s or PhD.
