*Managing Your Academic Career: Women in Academia*
Friday 10 December
University of Reading
UKRC and Vitae South East Hub present a one-day FREE workshop for Women
in Academia.
Managing your academic career is aimed at women in their early-mid
career stage and those who are returning from a career break. It enables
women to consider and plan the next stages of their career and identify
successful strategies for their development. It provides a facilitated
discussion forum to enable women to tackle a wide range of career issues
in a positive environment and to set some personal goals.
This one-day programme provides women in academia (and women returners)
with a day of active reflection to discuss a wide range of issues that
women face in the management of their careers. The programme provides an
opportunity to examine existing skills, networks and preferences so that
they can progress their careers.
The programme enables participants to:
· assess their current skills and identify areas for personal
development consider the notion of work-life balance and how this can be
achieved
· consider the need for profile raising and reputation building
· hold confident conversations around ambitions and goals
· understand how to market themselves through a CV
· make new contacts and practice networking skills
· set some personal goals.
