  • RSS Feed Icon

H&P will run a two day training course for academics to learn how the policy-making process works, and how to engage with policy makers and shapers. Drawing on H&P’s connections in Whitehall and civil society, delegates will hear from civil servants, NGO leaders, journalists and historians with experience in government, Parliament and beyond.

This bespoke training course is for all academics ranging from PhD students to professors. There are 30 free spaces on the course for academics from the Social Sciences and Public Policy faculty at King’s College London.

The two workshops will be held on 22nd March and 25th April 2016. The centre piece for this course will include an interactive scenario session led by Sir John Chilcot.

To book a space on the course email historyandpolicy@kcl.ac.uk
