Getting Started with Scrivener

Scrivener offers a sophisticated workspace in which you can manage all aspects of writing your thesis. You can keep your drafts, research notes, outlines, and synopses all in one place, then organise your screen to display exactly what you need.

The only problem? It’s overwhelming! In this course, you’ll get started with Scrivener. Through short videos, you’ll grasp the features that are most useful for PhD researchers like you. Once you’re using Scrivener every day, you’ll build your confidence and skills in no time.

This course is designed and presented by Dr Catherine Pope. Catherine is a coach, trainer, writer, and geek, who has worked with more than 4,000 researchers. She has recently published a book on How to Finish Your PhD. You can find out more at www.phdprogress.com.
