Watch this space for an announcement
of when we will be running the
6th IDTA Community Gathering
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. - and currently for ITAA, TAAJ and SATAA members also as part of IDTA being an IDTA Partner Organisation.
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 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). Our 5th, and most recent event, was on 30 June 2018, with presentations of TA and Police Culture, Systemic Leadership, the Unconscious, and Psychological Boundarees and Bridges,
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.
We are now inviting presenters for future events - to be considered just email us the title for your presentation, 2 or 3 sentences about it, 2 or 3 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 - 15 minutes, 20 minutes, 30 minutes, 45 minutes are all options. If necessary, we can help you put together a PowerPoint and you can have an online rehearsal if you have not done a presentation in this way before. So go ahead – all you need to do is email us.
