Lunchtime chat

 

Zoom details have now been sent out for this event - if you have registered and not received these, please check your junk mail folder or contact us via conference@archaeologists.net

Description

Comments on social media, such as during the Heritage Chat on Twitter, have highlighted how much people are missing the everyday networking opportunities which have been halted due to lockdown procedures. We know nothing can really beat the cross-organisational networking that happens in the break room, but we are trying to fill that gap.
 

Join us for lunchtime chat, from 12:30 until 13:15. Expand your social network from the comfort of your own home or wherever you are currently located, and perhaps chat with some people on Zoom other than your daily contacts! We will set up a series of break-out rooms for people to join and go from there.
 

CIfA staff will also be joining in on the conversations, so feel free to say hi! Please bear in mind: this is something new we are trying out. If you can think of ways to improve the process, let us know and we will see what we can do! This will be completely free with up to 100 spaces available.

Topics:

• Meet the Enabled Archaeology Foundation (EAF)
  A chance to meet EAF (Enabled Archaeology Foundation) committee members Sarahjayne Clements, Dr Abi Hunt and Emily Stammitti-Campbell and to learn more about the charity and the work they are doing. 
   

• What does the CIfA Scottish Group (SGCIfA) mean for you?
  Do you know about us and wonder what it is we do? Or do you have some ideas of how better we could promote CIfA, promote skills and training, support you and provide the service you want and need. Join us for 45 minutes where you get to ask the questions, come up with ideas and explore how we can all make Scottish Group CIfA work better with you and for you. 

  Areas we may wish to explore in the discussion include:
  
  - Student focussed videos on applying for work / finding training / etc
  - Preparing for Membership?
  - What matters for Scottish Archaeology?
  - How can we reach the widest audience?
  - and of course info on other SGCIfA tea time talks
