The SURF Annual Conference was originally intended to be a full day event in the CoSLA Conference Centre on the 27th August. Given the uncertainty around Covid-19 restrictions and whether or not a physical gathering would be able to go ahead, we have re-purposed this year’s Conference.
SURF’s 2020 SURF Annual Conference will now be a series of three weekly, sequential 90 minute morning sessions on Thursday August 27th (the originally promoted date), Thursday September 3rd and Thursday September 10th. They will be conducted via the Zoom conferencing platform.
Numbers for these events are limited. The programme for the third event is listed below, along with a link to Zoom to book a place. You are not required to have a Zoom account to attend. Access information about all three sessions here.
As places are limited you are kindly asked that if you book and can no longer attend that you let SURF know and they will reallocate your place.
Once booked you will receive a link to join the event. Please note that these are individual links that can only be streamed on one device, and can therefore not be shared with colleagues. They would have to book on separately.
If you have any queries or have issues with using/booking on Zoom please do not hesitate to get in touch with [email protected]
