Greetings! This post is specifically for GKIM professionals but I would encourage anyone to volunteer in their own organisations / professional areas when the opportunity arises. I have volunteered at CS Live in 2022 and2023 and it is a great experience. It isn't always easy to network across government and volunteering provides you with that plus can be part of your corporate contribution! FOr those outside government, CS Live is the annual conference for Civil Servants, you can find out more on the CSL website.

Civil Service Live, the annual UK-wide civil service staff learning conference, is just around the corner! This year, the GKIM profession will be providing sessions as part of the formal program and hosting stands in the exhibitions, with a theme based around preparing for AI.

Organisers of the GKIM representation at CSL2024 are seeking volunteers to support each of the locations. If you are interested please contact your Head of Profession or you can find out more in Knowledge Hub.

Supporting the GKIM presence at CSL 2024 is a great way to demonstrate and develop your expertise, share and hear about good practice, network with colleagues from a range of government departments and agencies, challenge yourself in a supportive environment, and promote GKIM while honing your “elevator pitches” ready to take back to your organisation.

CSL2024 will be a great opportunity for your development and profile. Why not find out more?

Thanks for reading,
