Following the success of last year’s virtual event, we are excited to announce that preparations are well underway for this year’s Staff Conference. We have received some wonderful contributions, so thank you to everyone who has submitted their ideas.
The Conference will take place on campus from 15-16 September 2022 with the theme ‘Building our University Community’. On the Friday afternoon, the event will close with an all-staff barbecue, and we hope it will top off two days spent celebrating our learning and enhancing our connections with one another.
Over the two days, we are planning numerous activities, both informative and informal. These might include:
- Seminars about projects, initiatives and activities across the University
- Talks on what it is like to work at Kent
- Discussions and workshops on important topics such as wellbeing and support
- Informal events which you can take part in, either individually or as a team
- Demonstrations or tours of facilities
The Conference allows us to mark the start of the academic year together, providing opportunities to learn about each other’s work and giving us a chance to reflect on how we all – whether academic, professional services, technical staff, or otherwise – contribute to achieving the University’s ambitions.
We look forward to seeing you there!
