Ch Ch Changes unconference 14th March 2015

ALIA Hunter are holding their second unconference on Saturday 14th March at Wallsend library.

The theme is "Ch Ch Changes", reflecting the ever evolving nature of our industry.

What's an unconference you ask? Unlike a traditional conference where an agenda is set and the audience sit and listen, unconferences are driven by the attendees - they set the topics, and then share and discuss amongst the group. It is collaborative and inclusive, and a brilliant networking opportunity.

Best of all, the unconference is free for ALIA members and only $2 for non members. Bargain!

Hope to see you there!
