RMS training survey attracts more than 500 responses!

The RMS has successfully completed a comprehensive survey aimed at identifying current demands and gaps in microscopy training.

With more than 500 responses, the survey provides valuable insights into the practical preferences of professionals in the field.

The 15-minute survey, designed to inform future RMS course offerings, garnered significant participation from the microscopy community with responses from all corners of the globe – 46 countries to be exact! 

As an incentive, participants were offered the chance to win a £100 Amazon voucher in a random prize-draw, and we’re pleased to announce the lucky winner was Pier Andrée Penttilä from the LMB in Cambridge!

Georgina Fletcher, the RMS contact for the survey, said: "On behalf of the Professional Training and Development -Focused Interest Groups (PTD-FIG), I'd like to say how grateful we are for the overwhelming response.

She added: "The Society aims to use these findings to tailor its training programmes, ensuring they meet the evolving needs of microscopists across various sectors."

The results of the survey will be published on the RMS website later this year.
