The Public Engagement Trainers (PET) Network are having our second event on the 13th October 2022. It will be an online swap shop where a panel of professionals share some training tips and insights gained from their experiences of working in Public Engagement and Science Communication.

* What are the experiences of a University PE training manager?
* What are some of the current theories and best practices in training?
* How can we incorporate experiential learning opportunities?
* How can we involve different ‘publics’?
* What can be done to help public speakers be more engaging?

In swapping/sharing our diverse experiences, lessons and top tips, we aim to help grow and fortify the collective knowledge and skill base of the PE training community.
