Events

Each of the Career Development Group's local divisions organises an active programme of events. These may include courses, workshops and seminars on a variety of topics, as well as visits, informal get-togethers, fundraising and social events. We aim to make our events affordable: some are free of charge, and others are competitively priced, with Career Development Group members usually paying preferential rates.

Most events are organised by our divisional committees, and we welcome those who wish to get actively involved at this level. Experience with divisional committee work broadens personal professional development and offers valuable opportunities for exchanging ideas and experience with library and information professionals working in different sectors.

National Events & Conferences

The Career Development Group also arranges events at a national level. On Monday 29th April 2008 we held a successful one-day national conference entitled ‘Keys to Time’ which took place at Cardiff City Hall.

 

Our forthcoming conference is ‘Raising the Bar’ and takes places on 19th June 2008 at University College London. It is a joint conference organized by the Career Development group and PTEG. It is a one-day conference aimed at middle and senior managers on developing yourself and your service, featuring plenary presentations, a choice of workshops and networking opportunities.

 

The Career Development Group will be contributing to several sessions at CILIP’s Umbrella conference at the University of Hertfordshire next year. Umbrella will take place on Tuesday 14th and Wednesday 15th July 2009. Further information will be available on this web site.
