BADGP Management Working-Groups

The work of the BADGP Management Committee is supported by a number of Working-Groups, each of which focuses on a particular aspect of BADGP's business. We always welcome new faces to our Working-Groups, so if you think you might be interested in joining, please contact enquiries@badgp.org in the first instance. The meetings of Working-Groups usually take place online, so travel, etc. is not usually an issue.

Events Group 

This Group looks after our program of events: webinars, seminars and our major, annual "AGM & Industry Seminar". 

The Group helps oversee all aspects of our events, from concept to delivery:

• developing topic ideas (mostly driven by current needs, e.g. Brexit)
• identifying specific topic items within the general topic
• identifying and liaising with speakers
• identifying and liaising with venues (where necessary)
• ideas for marketing
• liaising with the BADGP Office on aspects of admin, delivery, etc. 

Should you wish to be a speaker at a seminar, AGM or webinar or have an idea for a topic for which you'd like to see an event, please get in touch (enquiries@badgp.org).
