Cpd25 is currently seeking 2 new members to join Task Group 2 (Quality Standards & Legal Frameworks) and to contribute to the ongoing development and delivery of our excellent programme of development opportunities on behalf of the M25 Consortium of Academic Libraries. We'd be grateful if you could cascade this information to your teams and encourage staff who may be interested to put themselves forward.

Membership of Task Groups is open to all staff in M25 member institutions, with Task Group members normally drawn from a cross-section of member institutions, job roles and levels. Each Task Group meets approximately 3-4 times per year, and there is an annual cpd25 planning event when topics are considered to inform the following academic year’s programme planning. Task Group members work together with the M25 Support Team outside of these formal meetings to organise and deliver events and visits throughout the year, with the expectation of each member being that they will actively assist with the organisation and delivery of at least one or two events per year.

Further details on the current membership and the focus of each of the 4 Task Groups can be found on the cpd25 area of the M25 web site, and further details regarding membership of cpd25 Task Groups can be found in the Guide to Task Group Membership. Involvement with the cpd25 Task Groups is very rewarding, and a form of development in itself, and is an excellent opportunity to network with colleagues across the M25 Consortium and to exchange ideas and experience.

If anyone interested in joining the Task Group would like more information before making a decision please do ask them to contact David Archer, cpd25 Chair (david[log in to unmask]) for an informal discussion. Formal expressions of interest, not exceeding 400 words, outlining relevant experience and reasons for wanting to get involved should be made to David by Noon on Friday 8^th May 2020.
