From rachel.searcy at nyu.edu Mon Sep 11 15:05:57 2023 From: rachel.searcy at nyu.edu (Rachel Aileen Searcy) Date: Mon, 11 Sep 2023 15:05:57 -0400 Subject: [Archivesspace_tac] GitHub Training Opportunity for Council Members Message-ID: Hello everyone, I hope that you're all enjoying the end of your summers. An evergreen topic amongst Council leadership is identifying and providing opportunities for Council members to grow their skills as part of their service. Part of that growth can be the result of your actual Council activities (e.g., learning more about the application by testing, improving meeting facilitation skills by acting as a sub-team lead). In addition, we have been investigating other training opportunities to complement these efforts. We are happy to let you know that we anticipate being able to offer the upcoming GitHub for Everyone: Part 2 class on October 26th to you all free of charge. Many, many thanks to Christine for her work to make this happen. If you would like to attend, please reply and let me know, and we'll go from there to coordinate logistics.
