The Researcher Portal is the place to:

  • See FAQs pertaining to common issues faced by researchers.
  • Find quick access to the HDR Candidate Centre (Enrolment Online) and the Research Ethics Platform (REP).
  • Find capability development training information.

The information on the Researcher Portal is for current RMIT HDR students and RMIT staff only.

Getting started

The Researcher Portal is available for all current researchers and HDR candidates at RMIT. If you do not already have access, there are two ways to gain access:

  • Ask researcher.portal@rmit.edu.au to provide you access.
  • Ask your supervisor to request it on your behalf by completing a Salesforce New User form via ServiceNow. They will need to select ‘Researcher Portal User’ as the access level and ‘Researcher Portal’ as the Salesforce Profile.
