Hi all, We are delighted that the first online SI-PASS/PAL Supervisor training in January was a success with positive feedback from the participants. We now have scheduled further Supervisor trainings on March 2nd to 5th and on April 20th to 23rd. The trainings will be held in English. This comprehensive course will cover what SI-PASS is, how it works and how it can be implemented at a higher education institution (including making a budget, selecting suitable courses that can be supported by SI-PASS, recruiting and training SI Leaders, following up and evaluating the programme). More information and registration at European Centre for SI-PASS website: www.si-pass.lu.se/en<http://www.si-pass.lu.se/en> Following the success of bringing Supervisors together on zoom, the Leader Festival and the pilot FIKA in November, the European Centre for SI-PASS (Lund University) is pleased to announce SI-PASS FIKAs will become a regular monthly feature for supervisors and leaders. We have now set dates for the spring semester of 2021. An SI-PASS FIKA is an informal get together over a cup of coffee/tea and a cinnamon bun (last item not mandatory). The FIKA is free of charge and provides a chance to talk about SI-PASS related issues or just have a chat with SI-PASS friends. We have attached a preliminary theme to all the FIKAS, but invite you to propose other ones. If so, please send them to si-pass at stu.lu.se<mailto:si-pass at stu.lu.se>. The schedule for the SI-PASS FIKAs during the spring 2021 is given below: FIKA sessions for Supervisors and Leaders:   2pm – 3.30pm UK/3pm – 4.30pm Sweden   Date   Preliminary theme  Wednesday 17th Feb  SI-PASS Leader training   Wednesday 17th March  Leader Support  Wednesday 21st April  Ways of rewarding leaders Wednesday 19th May  Increasing awareness of SI-PASS at HEI  Wednesday 16th June  Evaluation of SI-PASS    The meetings are online (you don’t need to register) with English as working language on the following zoom-link: https://lu-se.zoom.us/j/4630658731 Best regards, European Centre for SI-PASS Will, Lise-Lotte, Marcia and Joakim [cid:image001.jpg at 01D6F88D.DB32B920]
