Developed by MRS and drawing on best practice across the profession, the MRS Advanced Certificate is designed for those who are within the first two years of their research career or for those seeking to enter the research profession.

It’s ideal for people in all areas of research (buyers, suppliers and operations staff, undergraduates, market and social researchers, pollsters) from a broad range of employers (large and small agencies, local and national government, FTSE 500 companies, consultancies, financial institutions, charities) – the list is endless.
