AHRC bursaries for Clore intensive courses

Bursary funding is available for arts and humanities academics to undertake an intensive leadership training course delivered by Clore Leadership.

Academics are eligible to apply for the Emerging Leaders or Leadership Pulse courses. The courses offer academics a unique opportunity to develop their leadership skills and competencies to contribute to the vitality of the cultural sector through their research and engagement activities.

AHRC will provide funding for the full course such as fees, accommodation and meals for two academics in the arts and humanities for each course. A carer’s bursary is also available to support applicants with caring responsibilities.
