Calling all doctoral candidates and supervisors!

Join us on Tuesday before the conference for this amazing event crafted as a safe space for doctoral candidates to discuss dilemmas and get unstuck!

The SAAHE Doctoral Dilemma Space is an event sponsored by SAAHE Council in the interests of advancing research on health professions education in our region. There is therefore no fee for this interactive seminar where you can share and discuss a dilemma from your doctoral research with other doctoral candidates and supervisors.

The environment is crafted around you and the idea is that it is a supportive space where you present your dilemma to fellow PhD candidates and their supervisors. Everyone works together to discuss options for getting you unstuck.

The expectation is not that you present a beautifully packaged insight from your PhD! This is rather the opportunity to share how you are grappling with conceptualizing a key theoretical concept; or struggling to make sense of your data analysis; or how to present your findings; or any other dilemma you are grappling with.

Feedback from previous events has highlighted the immense value of insights from the discussions, opportunities to get multiple perspectives and to network with others tackling their doctorate.

When: Tuesday 25 June 2024 (Lunch will be provided)

Where: Gateway Hotel, Umhlanga, Durban (TBC)

Notes:

  1. For the application, you will need to formulate your dilemma in 300 words, so do this before you tackle the application. Here are some guidelines:
    Please provide some context to your study and then describe your dilemma. You might also want to explain why is this a dilemma and how has it come about? At what point in your study did you identify this issue as a possible dilemma? What have you encountered in your reading/research that either contributes to your dilemma, or might provide a way out of it? How are you currently planning to address it? Are you aware of others who have encountered similar dilemmas? What is it that you want from other participants in the Space?
  2. While there is no fee for the seminar, you are responsible for your travel and accommodation costs.
  3. You do not have to be a SAAHE member to take advantage of this opportunity. If you attend the conference, your membership fee for 1 year is included in the registration fee. If you are not going to attend the conference and would like to join SAAHE, please follow the link in the Membership Notice below.
