NCAS STAFF Meeting 2022
Dear Colleagues,
We were delighted to see you earlier this week at the NCAS Staff Meeting 2022 in Manchester. Thank you for coming!
Your Feedback
Your feedback is always greatly appreciated.
By setting aside 15 minutes to complete the NCAS Staff Meeting 2022 feedback form you will help to shape the programme and organisation of our meeting next year, and support us to make informed decisions about sustainability and inclusivity.
Please complete the NCAS Staff Meeting 2022 Feedback Form by 1pm Thursday 21 July 2022.
Slido
We used Slido during the meeting to launch polls and capture your thoughts, and to invite questions throughout the main sessions. Thank you for taking part in this way.
Many of the questions were answered during the Q&A sessions, but there wasn’t enough time to cover them all. Results from Slido polls have been inserted into a copy of the slide decks and they are available on this microsite. Members of the Management Board will provide replies to the unanswered questions over the coming weeks, and these will be made available on the microsite as soon as possible.
Staff Meeting 2022 Microsite
The Staff Meeting 2022 Microsite will remain available for at least the next three months, should you wish to revisit any of the information there.
Slides and recordings from plenary sessions (and other content that speakers keen to share) will be made available on the microsite as soon as possible in the Programme Review section.
Specific Surveys
As part of our commitment to staff training, we invited Marie Guest from Bitesize Learning to offer a small selection of short training taster sessions as part of our Supporting Science session. These tasters are part of a wider programme of training courses offered by BiteSize Learning and we are keen to hear from staff about their experience and if they think similar sessions in future might be useful.
Staff are asked to complete the 2023 Training Poll to let us know what training courses might be of interest to them in the future.
If you have any questions or comments, please contact Louise Whitehouse, Education and Staff Development Manager.
SSF&T AND Operations Questionnaire
At the NCAS Staff Meeting 2022, staff were asked to share their thoughts on a number of areas relating to the Scientific Services, Facilities, & Training, and Operations Directorates, and how best they can support the science you are engaged in.
If you didn’t have the opportunity to add your feedback to the poster boards, please feel free to complete this questionnaire.
If you have any questions or comments, please contact Barbara Brooks, Scientific Services, Facilities and Training Director, or John Eager, Operations Director
Net Zero DRI Project
Mary Black and Martin Juckes have asked us to share with you a slide regarding a UKRI DRI Infrastructure Scoping Project. Please feel free to take a look.
Diary Dates for 2023
We hope to be able to announce the dates for the NCAS Staff Meeting 2022 by the end of September. If there are any significant periods of time that you know of where groups of staff will be unavailable, please share these in the feedback form.
Best wishes,
Steven, Gemma and Libby
