Section for Archives and Museums AGM and Panel
Location: Online (Microsoft Teams)
Time: 12.15pm
A short AGM will be held by the ARA's Section for Archives and Museums, which will look back at the first three busy and productive years of the Section and which will also plan for the coming year ahead.
After a quick break, we will hold a panel discussion: ‘In Conversation With …’ panel: Career Progression and Diversifying your Skill Set. We have invited a diversely experienced panel of guests who will discuss their own career progression and how they have actively worked to diversify their skills. The panellists have all developed wide skillsets throughout their careers, and they have come into heritage through a diverse range of routes. We may run a little over at the end if things are going very well!
We will be asking for questions in advance through SAM's twitter account @ARAArchMus so keep an eye out for that very soon. Otherwise you are welcome to email questions or comments to sam@archives.org.uk by Tues 3rd May 2022.
We look forward to seeing you there!
