Researchers must be equipped and supported to be adaptable and flexible in an increasingly diverse global research environment and employment market.
This Principle recognises the importance of continuous professional and career development, particularly as researchers pursue a wide range of careers.
This principle is underpinned by obligations for the four key stakeholder groups, funders, institutions, researchers and managers of researchers, to realise the aims of the Concordat.
