Hi everybody, Our call for applications to join our 2020 cohort of Carpentries Feedback Facilitators is still open, and we are keen to have as many of you as are interested to join us.
We are excited for all the possibilities that equipping community members with skills to collect and organise publicly-shared informal feedback would open The Carpentries to. Feedback facilitators in The Carpentries would be able to: * collect and organise community feedback shared publicly and informally in Carpentries spaces for ease of filtering, action and response in the community, * periodically offer official recommendations and kickstart conversations on issues and items that Core Team should prioritise, * maintain a public, community-wishlist board that collates community feedback on different initiatives and experiences in The Carpentries * recommend topics for Carpentries Conversations and Themed Discussions to the Instructor Development and Communications facilitation team as appropriate This blog post <https://carpentries.org/blog/2020/09/apply-feedback-facilitators-cohort/> gives a great breakdown of feedback flow in The Carpentries and how this program hopes to enrich that process. Have a read, apply by filling this short form <https://forms.gle/mSh6zj7LYvmjFpuS8> and help spread the word to others in The Carpentries community, including learners that have gone through Carpentries workshops and are keen to be more actively involved in The Carpentries. The deadline for applications is at the end of day, Monday, 5 October 2020, anywhere on Earth. Thank you all. -- Best, Serah Njambi Rono Director of Community Development and Engagement at The Carpentries <https://carpentries.org/> Twitter: @serahrono <https://twitter.com/serahrono> Pronouns: She/her/hers Schedule a meeting with me: https://calendly.com/serahrono The Carpentries <https://carpentries.org/> *- **We teach foundational coding and data science skills to researchers worldwide.* carpentries.org | Twitter <http://twitter.com/thecarpentries> | Facebook <https://www.facebook.com/carpentries/> | Blog <https://carpentries.org/blog/> The Carpentries is a fiscally sponsored project of Community Initiatives <http://communityin.org/>, a registered 501(c)3 non-profit organisation based in California, USA.
