Cardiff CPD23 meet-up

With the CPD23 course running again this summer, CLIC has decided to organise an informal meet-up for anyone starting the course or thinking about taking part, based in the south Wales area (or close by). Although CPD meet-ups are often organised as part of Thing 7 (see the Cardiff #yurtup), we thought it might be nice for people to get to know each other prior to then.

Barocco in Wharton Street, Cardiff
 It will take place in the upstairs section of Barocco in Cardiff city centre from 6pm-9pm on Wednesday 16th May. A number of CLIC members who took part in the course last year will be on hand to talk about their experiences and offer tips and advice on any aspects of the course. You can check out a presentation made by Karen Pierce on her CPD23 experiences at a recent CLIC event. Parking is available not too far from the bar (click the link to see a map of nearby car parks), and Barocco does really nice food!


You can pop in at any time, it's an informal event, more a chance to have a chat than anything else, and if you need any more information you can contact me via this blog or my Twitter account @KrisWJ

Hope to see you there!

  1. Hi Kristine, just signed up today, live & work in Aberystwyth, and coming to the CILIP conference, THE NEXT DAY! If any of you folks are going to be in the conf on the Thur/Fri, I'll look out for names and faces!

    1. Hi Alyson, sadly I'm not able to make it to the CILIP Wales conference myself (boo!), but I know for definite that @Darklecat (http://darksideofthecatalogue.wordpress.com/) and @helbader from CLIC will be there, and probably loads of other CLIC members too!
      Looking forward to following your progress with CPD23, maybe you will get to make one of the other meet ups? I know it's a long way from Aber, but we did have someone (Nia) make the trip last year!

    2. Thanks for the name refs, I'll look out for them and any others. I do go to Cardiff a couple of times of year for work so maybe will make a meet up.

    1. Ooh maybe we could arrange a Wales/Scotland exchange, that would be so amazing!

      Thanks for the mention on your blog by the way, I've been having a look at your's and am quite intrigued by what "From time to time I assume the persona of 'Whittaker' himself" involves!
