Join Jisc and colleagues from projects for a free one-hour webinar on the Access to Resources and Open Innovation initiative.
Find out about the aims of the initiative and how they were achieved, together with examples of how projects brought about benefits to organisations:
- Chris Batt OBE, Critical Friend to the initiative will provide an overview and background to the activities and projects
- Siobhan Jordan from Interface Scotland will describe how their project allowed them to embrace technology to allow Scottish Universities to engage online with businesses in rural South-West Scotland
- Emma Nolan from Liverpool John Moore’s University will talk about how the Open LivIn project has contributed to the success of the Innovation Commons
- Simon Whittemore from Jisc will sum up the webinar, describing how it fits with current policy and where we go next with the initiative.
The webinar will take place on Wednesday 26th March from 12-1pm. We will be using Blackboard Collaborate to carry out the webinar. Collaborate is free to use and accessible through a web browser – instructions will be provided to attendees and a brief orientation will be offered before the webinar begins to allow you to familiarise yourself with how the platform works.
To attend, please complete the brief registration form (NOW CLOSED). Registered delegates will receive joining instructions including the link to join the webinar shortly before the event.
