The RES is looking to recruit further people to the Education and Training Committee.
The RES launched the Education and Training Committee in 2023, with an aim to help shape the future path of education and training at the Society, enabling the Society to enrich the world with insect science.
Some exciting new programmes that have been explored so far include:
- A new CPD programme for entomologists
- A new schools education programme both in the UK and globally
- Establish a new bursary programme for undergraduate and postgraduate students
- Working more with other partners and stakeholders
The committee, chaired by Dr Joe Roberts, meets around three times each year, with virtual or hybrid meetings. They will also be scheduled at various times to enable all time zones to be included where possible. The committee members support the work of the RES staff team in between meetings.
The RES hugely values equity, diversity and inclusivity and the valuable input that our global membership brings. We want the committee to reflect all areas and backgrounds of our community.
