We had our second in-person Eastern Arc Technicians’ Network Symposium on 23rd July at the University of Sussex. A group of Kent technical and library services staff attended this one day event where successes were shared and celebrated.
Attendees were able to network and collaborate with colleagues from the universities of East Anglia, Essex, Kent and Sussex. There was an informative and thought provoking session delivered by Sarah Allen (Career Pathways Lead at the UK Institute for Technical Skills and Strategy) along with some productive discussions. Attendees were able to pick from a whole host of tours on offer of the University’s facilities, which is always a popular aspect of these events.
A special thank you to our wonderful hosts and to Robert Fowler and Vicky McDonald from the University of Sussex for organising this event alongside the Eastern Arc Technicians’ Network Steering Group.
We are already looking forward to next year’s event!
