Technician Commitment Network
The Technician Commitment is run by technicians for technicians. The University has increased activities and projects for the Technician Commitment. We need your input, engagement, and volunteers to improve our plans and make real change.
The agenda includes updates on training and leadership programmes and a sharing platform from ITSS. There will be guest speakers on sustainability and communities of practice. Technicians understand sustainability in their workplaces and we want to apply this to the wider University.
Better networking, projects and communications can help, known as a Community of Practice. Our networks and newsletters are good for news and events, but with your help, we could do more. Are you interested in helping us drive these changes?
What we need
- Contacts to help deliver updates on training and to provide feedback on local needs.
- Volunteers for outreach and other projects. Help us inspire the next generation and encourage pride in technical roles.
- Technical staff to input into larger change programmes across the University. Do you want the University to hear the voices of technical staff? Be involved in changes that affect us.
Reasons to volunteer
- Many technical staff feel they are not listened to. Help us break down these barriers and have your voice heard.
- Learn new skills beyond your current role.
- Gain experience for your CV.
What we will do
- Engage with local contacts and discuss any issues.
- Help with local meetings or networks you want to develop.
- Make introductions across the University and make changes together.
- Provide meetings throughout the year.
- Help wherever we can and develop new projects together.
