Aspiring RSE Leaders Workshop: 1st & 2nd May 2019
The Society of Research Software Engineering is running a free workshop for aspiring RSE leaders. It will provide you with the contacts and expertise to run your own RSE Group or become a leader in the RSE community. At the workshop you will network with established RSE leaders, learn about some of the challenges facing RSEs and RSE Groups, and take part in discussions about the solutions to these challenges.
The workshop is free to attend. Accommodation, meals and travel expenses will be covered by the Society of Research Software Engineering and the Software Sustainability Institute. Since places are limited, attendees will be chosen based on their responses to an application form (see below) which will be judged by a panel of RSEs.
