[HubbardBrook] Communications training at LTER All Scientists meeting

[Gary Lovett]

Dear Hubbard Brook Collaborators:



If you are certain that you will attend the LTER All-Scientists meeting in
October and are interested in the communications training described below,
please let me know right away.  Our site is allowed to nominate two people
for the training.



Please

1)      include a brief (1-2 sentence) statement of why you think this
session will be helpful to you,

2)      and also indicate whether you prefer the Wednesday or Thursday
session.



I need to know of your interest by the end of the day on Monday, June 4.



Thanks!



Gary

*Communications Trainings*

We are contracting with the Alan Alda Center to offer 2 one-day trainings
(one on Wednesday and one on Thursday) during the ASM. Their approach is
highly participatory, not at all didactic, very fun, and very effective.
They can accommodate 16 people in each training, which gives us one per
site, plus a couple of floaters.



The Wednesday training  will mean foregoing one day of workshops, but will
not entail any additional expenses. The Thursday training is independent of
the meeting, but will require an extra day of lodging, so sites or
individuals will be asked to pick up that night if they choose the Thursday
training.



I know there is more demand for communications training than we are able to
accommodate with this plan. Please know that we are also planning several
communications-related workshops throughout the meeting.



Participants can include PI's, mid- or early-career investigators, grad
students or IMs or Ed/Outreach Managers -- anyone who needs and wants to
improve their connection with diverse audiences.
