Hi all! I had a PyCon Hatchery event accepted: The Python Trainers Summit. More info on the hatchery page, including the link to submit a proposal: https://us.pycon.org/2020/hatchery/trainers/
This is a single day conference within PyCon US itself. I'll repeat just a portion of the call below. The hatchery page has all the gory details. This summit seeks to forge connections within the trainers from all practices to formalize their community of practice and connect them with others working within education contexts. Providing the space and platform for professional trainers to engage with the more formal education practices, and those educators to connect with the needs of corporate and professional development audiences. Here are some topics to get you thinking: * Adapting learning goals to short and super short form training * Working with professional development learners (vs K-12, higher education, or adult career change learners) * Freelancing resources * Live web-instruction practices * Centering inclusion, diversity, and accessibility within the professional classroom * Navigating a code of conduct intersecting with an employer’s code of conduct * Installation/cloud needs for professional learners * Career pathways for becoming a trainer * Types of training-related jobs * Podcasting and content promotion strategy * Client management tools * How to hire and a trainer and explain your training needs * The unique training needs of data science, software engineering, and research programming. Are you an expert on any of these topics? Think one is missing? Submit a proposal! The call is open through March 6, with acceptances sent out about a week later. Thanks!
