Export Controls Training Course

This training course, developed by the Higher Education Export Control Association (HEECA) in collaboration with the government is a critical for understanding and complying with export control regulations. It supports the University’s commitment to ensuring that all research activities align with legislation. 

The course provides: 

  • A nationally consistent approach to Export Control Compliance 
  • Practical guidance and training materials tailored to the challenges faced by the research sector 
  • Helpful links and resources for deepening your understanding of export controls 

 

Who Must Complete this Training? 

The training is mandatory for: 

  • FSE and FBMH researchers (PGR and above) 
  • research-related Professional Services (PS) staff. 
  • Individuals who use research software or commercial software purchased for either research or non-research purposes. 

 

If you are involved in international collaborations- whether as a researcher or supporting staff- this training is especially critical. Export due diligence checks at UoM are undertaken when working with collaborators or funders outside the UK.  

Remember: that sharing information internationally is considered an export under UK regulations.
