The event is co-organized by FASS and the International Office; thanks to my co-organizers Robert Geyer, Claire Astle, and Lindsey King.<\/p>\n<p>The event is called \u201cAcademics as recruiters: Why it matters and what it involves\u201d and takes place on Thursday, November 10, 1-3pm in County South PDR. It will feature short presentations by Robert Geyer (AD International, FASS), by colleagues from the International Office and by experienced (FASS, LUMS and FST) academics who have recruited overseas in the past. The current version of our schedule is at the bottom of this message.<\/p>\n<p>The purpose is to identify colleagues who might be interested in recruiting overseas (agents, fairs, etc.) and to provide them with an idea of what makes a good recruitment trip. It will also be an opportunity to share best (recruitment) practices across departments and service units. For this reason, we would like to encourage colleagues who already have some overseas recruitment experience to attend the event as well. While our emphasis will be on academics as recruiters, we also encourage non-academic staff to attend.<\/p>\n<p>The event is free but registration is required by Friday, November 4.
