ARCISS organises events for its members and these provide excellent opportunities for learning and networking. These events are sometimes open to non-ARCISS members when it is considered that the workshop or conference would benefit from a broader range of expertise and experience.

Forthcoming:

October 6 2009: Survive or Prosper? A workshop on directing research centres at British Academy, 10 Carlton House Terrace, London, SW1Y 5AH.
