@_lenaackermann Didn't tell us about relocation expenses though and as was first time moving for a job we didn't know they existed

[Dr Emma Compton-Daw @compton_emma]

@_lenaackermann UK to US (NIH) move. First month's salary in first week with slightly lower monthly salary over first year to cover it; has own bank which gave credit cards immediately (otherwise takes a year). Accomodation was mostly unfurnished so meant we could buy furniture

[Dr Emma Compton-Daw @compton_emma]

This is maybe a bit niche even for Academic Development, but has anyone ever attempted to get AFHEA accreditation aligned within the "teaching" strand of the Vitae Researcher Development Framework?

[Dr Emma Compton-Daw @compton_emma]

@patrickthomson @gabriellemilson Aha! I'll retweet then and see if any Researcher Developers have done it

@cgl_119 @kayguccione @ProfRachelGaN But there was also lots and lots of support and positive comments from people close to me in lab as I figured out what I wanted to do and knew how much I wanted the new role.

[Dr Emma Compton-Daw @compton_emma]

@cgl_119 @kayguccione @ProfRachelGaN Surprise from several people that I was moving to a role that I was excited about and not interested in the month or so's money they wanted to offer me.
