Dear All,
I am about to organise the next meeting of the Archives Trainees Group and was wondering if there is anyone who would like to join the group, who isn’t already on our mailing list? The group is for those who are currently gaining experience in an archive (either in a paid position or as a volunteer), prior to starting the post-graduate professional qualification. We meet every couple of months and have had speakers on subjects such as the qualifications, working in records management, finding a job after qualification etc, as well as speakers from within the group, talking about their current roles as trainees. The meetings are a great chance to meet other trainees, to share experiences and also to visit another archive. Further information can be found at: http://www.archives.org.uk/si-new-professionals/trainees.html
I am in the process of organising the next meeting and would be grateful if you could let me know if you think hearing about the post-graduate archives courses would be useful.
If you, or someone you manage would like to be a member of the group, please do e-mail me and do pass this message onto anyone who might be interested.
With best wishes,
Kiri
