Supporting the well-being of researchers: member networking seminar 2017 - South East
Free event for Vitae members
University of Surrey, Tuesday 28 March 2017
FREE event for all of those based at Vitae member organisations
Vitae is pleased to invite member HEIs to the South-East member networking seminar, co-hosted by the University of Surrey. This one day event is part of a series of networking seminars open to member organisations. The free seminars, hosted by our Vitae regional representatives and member organisations, aim to facilitate networking and practice-sharing among the staff based at Vitae member organisations.
In the morning, there will be an update from the Vitae team, followed by a broad discussion of interests and priorities. Feedback from this session will inform the Vitae membership programme for 2017/18.
The afternoon session is based around a priority theme, chosen by the region, to encourage practice-sharing and networking. Expert speakers on the theme will provide thought-provoking input to stimulate discussion.
By attending this event, you will:
- be updated on the most recent Vitae activities and plans
- have an opportunity to inform future Vitae strategy and contribute to the development of the Vitae 2017/18 programme
- Engage in discussion, debate and sharing practice around supporting the well-being of researchers
- network with colleagues from member institutions and embed local networks and working groups
