<p style="margin-top:0;margin-bottom:0">I was going to suggest this too, but Birmingham have beaten us to it and volunteered. I went along to the first meeting of the Midlands PEN last month, which will become part of the national network. We are planning to
hold 2-3 meetings per year. Shall I offer to host the next one of those instead?</p>

At the beginning of the 2018-19 academic year we will be launching a new network for public engagement professionals (PEPs) across the UK. This national network aims to mobilise the collective experience and skills of PEPS and support their career development.
It will provide access to the latest thinking and expertise about engagement policy and practice, offer opportunities for CPD and training, support members to share solutions and problems, and establish peer support mechanisms. Between June and September,
we're hosting a number of free 'taster' events for prospective members.</p>
<p style="margin:0px; font-style:normal; font-variant:normal; font-weight:normal; font-size:12px; line-height:normal; font-family:"Helvetica Neue"; color:rgb(69,69,69)">

<p style="margin:0px; font-style:normal; font-variant:normal; font-weight:normal; font-size:12px; line-height:normal; font-family:"Helvetica Neue"; color:rgb(69,69,69)">
This network is aimed at public engagement professionals (or PEPs) in higher education institutions across the UK. That is, people who work in professional services roles with responsibility for coordinating, or supporting public engagement within their institution,
whether this is a part of their formal job title or not. This group, often referred to as public engagement 'enablers' or 'brokers', face a series of common and often unique challenges in working to support the embedding of high quality public engagement within
higher education institutions, and often work in quite isolated contexts. </p>

<p style="margin:0px; font-style:normal; font-variant:normal; font-weight:normal; font-size:12px; line-height:normal; font-family:"Helvetica Neue"; color:rgb(69,69,69)">
The PEP network will be focused around an annual calendar of face-to-face events held across the UK regions. Each event will provide a mixture of formal CPD - tailored for members at a variety of career stages and with a variety fo roles; structured networking
and skills sharing; and, a chance to hear from the NCCPE and other invited experts about the latest developments in the sector.</p>
<p style="margin:0px; font-style:normal; font-variant:normal; font-weight:normal; font-size:12px; line-height:normal; font-family:"Helvetica Neue"; color:rgb(69,69,69)">
In between these face-to-face events we will provide an online space where you can connect with peers and catch up on the learning from any events you've missed. We will also encourage and facilitate additional local and regional meetings.</p>

Before we formally launch the network at the start of the 2018-19 academic year, we plan to hold a number of free PEP Network taster events across the UK between June and September for those interested in being a part of this network. There are three ways to
get involved, register for one of our planned events, offer to host another taster event, or register your interest in the network.</p>
