In 2004 the Economic and Social Research Council (ESRC) set up the National Centre for Research Methods (NCRM) at the University of Southampton. NCRM was tasked to increase the quality and range of methodological approaches used by UK social scientists through a programme of training and capacity building, and with driving forward methodological development and innovation through its own research programme.
The courses are very reasonably priced at £30 a day for students and they are covering a wide range of topics, offered by both NCRM as well as external training providers.
