Face-to face versus virtual; how to prepare for the future? 

Many Early Career Researchers have mastered online delivery of teaching and learning but have not yet had the opportunity to present themselves and their work in a face-to-face setting. Conversely, some researchers have taught, given presentations or attended conferences face-to-face in the past, but now have to adapt to remote and online formats. As researchers will likely face a blend of environments in the future, this webinar will help you to prepare for presenting and building your network in a range of scenarios.

Drawing from 10 years of experience in delivering training courses and lectures, Dr. Mhairi Towler will share her top tips for presenting under these different circumstances.

The session topics to be discussed include:

• Narrative
• Confidence
• Audience
• Equality, Diversity and Inclusivity
• Practical tips for blended learning
• Building your network
• Job interviews
