The 4th UK and Republic of Ireland ACBS ACT and Contextual Behavioural Science (CBS) Online Conference is coming up very soon on the 16th and 17th of November. Conferences are a place to rapidly learn and update yourself on the cutting edge research and practice within the ACT and CBS world. For those of us who work (or aspire to work in supporting people in the workplace) it's a rich, multidisciplinary source of inspiration.
However, given the current climate, it is not easy to access funding to attend conferences, especially for students and recent graduates. As such (and inspired by Contextual Consulting) People Soup will be sponsoring two free places for students and recent graduates of disciplines that involve supporting people in the workplace using ACT and Contextual Behavioural Science (worth £115 each). This will be both to attend the live conference online and receive full access to the recording of the sessions for viewing afterwards.
The conference has an exciting array of speakers presenting on a variety of topics. You can find out about the conference and read the full programme here:
The programme includes three fabulous workshops and I was lucky enough to interview each of the presenters on the People Soup Podcast.
Who is eligible?
- Any student or or recent graduate of organisational/occupational psychology, coaching psychology or sports psychology who has a keen interest in ACT and Contextual Behavioural Science in the workplace.
How do I enter?
Please email me with 'Conference Sponsorship' in the subject line and include:
- Your brief CV - maximum one page. Give me the highlights without using a tiny font or disappearing margins!
