What are Study Tours?

ARMA’s Study Tours are free one-day events which are hosted by a research funder, learned society, government department or relevant partner for our members. Our Study Tours provide a unique forum for funders to disseminate information aimed specifically at topics of interest to members. At the same time, Tours facilitate opportunities for networking and debate, giving our members the opportunity to ask searching questions, and funders the opportunity to test out new ideas, using our members as a very useful sounding board.
