Let’s celebrate our success

Hello, everyone. Thank you for participating in the course. It’s been a really enjoyable and productive couple of weeks, and we hope you’re feeling motivated to take the next step forward in your research. Yes, we have covered a lot of territory in a short space of time and achieved so much together. We trust you’ve broadened your knowledge and skill base and can now identify what makes for good qualitative research. From the initial design, through data collection and analysis, you’ve been introduced to the tools you need to continue your journey in the world of research. Together, we’ve worked on ideas for research topics and examined a range of qualitative research projects.

We’ve explored interview skills and highlighted problems inherent with the human analyst. We hope we have awakened your passion and confidence in undertaking a qualitative research project and have completed the task of preparing a research planning document, which is a valuable piece for your portfolio. Your research story doesn’t need to end here. Our next course in the series starts shortly. Be on the lookout for why numbers matter and the others that follow that. Together, we will guide you to complete a comprehensive research proposal. We look forward to seeing you then.
