Developing Yourself as a PI
Please find links below to key policies and guidance that help enable PIs to both manage researchers and develop themselves whilst leading a research project.
We recommend all PIs that manage research staff should attend the Organisational Development course 'Fixed Term Contracts' and explore the other courses available. You may also wish to take a look at this external guidance from Vitae on .

Vitae is an international programme led by the UK charity, Careers Research and Advisory Centre, working to enhance the potential of researchers.
has many useful resources aimed at developing PIs and helping them to support their research staff effectively. Many of the most popular resources for PI are linked to in the above sections.
All our staff and students get full access to the Vitae website and resources if you register with your Sussex email address.
