5th IDTA Community Gathering 17 March 2018
ONLINE - FREE TO MEMBERS - 1100-1500 UK time as usual
The IDTA – Institute of Developmental TA – is an international special interest group, concentrating on the organisational, educational and counselling fields of TA application, and is affiliated to EATA and is a Partner Organisation with the ITAA. We have been running online Community Gathering events since April 2016. Attendance is a free benefit to all IDTA members.
IDTA virtual conferences are just like any meeting that you might attend except that you remain in the comfort of your own home. The technology means that you only have to connect by clicking the link that you will be sent; this will connect you to our online conference room, a chance to meet others and to enjoy the content throughout the day.
For the April 2016 event we had participation from Belgium, India, Italy, Poland, Romania, and Slovenia as well as from the UK, with requests to have the recordings received from members in Russia and the USA because the UK timings meant that the event was running in the middle of the night :-) Then on 1st October 2016 we ran a second event, with participation from those same countries, and from Brazil and Switzerland. Our third event was on 22 April 2017 and added participation from Netherlands and Turkey. Our 4th and most recent event was on 16 September 2017, with presenters from Curacao in the Caribbean as well as Belgium, Turkey and the UK, and the addition of participation by an Iranian (in the UK at the time) and Australia (via recordings).
Each time, we have had sessions that lasted anything from 15 minutes to 45 minutes. We run the whole thing as one 4-hour event, with a 20-minute break, so that all participants are logged in for all presentations. We are using Zoom, which is great because it allows for any number of Webcams to be showing and also allows plenty of audience participation.
We are now inviting people to offer to present on 17th March. Whether you are qualified in TA or not, we will welcome you if you have something interesting to share, whether that be a new approach to some TA theory, how you have been working with clients, using TA alongside non-TA approaches, or indeed anything else that is likely to interest our members. All we need at this point is the title for your presentation, two or three sentences about it, two or three sentences about you as presenter and including your TA involvement so far, and some indication of how long a session you would like to run.
It would be really helpful to get that soon as we are keen to start shaping up the programme and get the publicity out. We are also planning to have fewer sessions in March, with more time for audience discussion, so send on your idea soon to be included. Once we see what offers we have, we will then be able to get back to you and confirm whether you are in the schedule.
To offer to present, please email admin@instdta.org
To book your place as a participant, just email us at admin@instdta.org
