This interactive publication describes the outcomes of a unique interinstitutional project undertaken in Ireland between 2008 and 2012 to develop a common framework for the support of supervisors of postgraduate research students.
The experiences of the seven institutions who ultimately participated in the NAIRTL Supervisor Support and Development project are summarized in the form of a series of commentaries on approaches to such training, and a description of the primary elements of the final framework itself. It is intended that this information may be of use to any institutions interested in developing their own supports for research supervisors, and ultimately will be of benefit to the supervisors themselves and, of course, their students.

The production of this publication was a collaborative effort between the members of NAIRTL’s Supervisor Support and Development working group:
Alan Kelly, University College Cork (Chair of Working Group), Lucy Byrnes, National University of Ireland, Galway, Veronica Campbell, Trinity College Dublin, Janet Carton, University College Dublin, Siobhan Harkin, Waterford Institute of Technology, Anna Marie Leonard, National University of Ireland, Galway, Pat Morgan, National University of Ireland, Galway, Ciara O’Farrell, Trinity College Dublin, Catherine O’Mahony, NAIRTL, and Niall Smith, Cork Institute of Technology.
