Join us for a free workshop on academic CVs, hybrid CVs, and résumés!

For 2024-2025, ACH is pleased to offer monthly professional development
sessions. These informal Zoom meetups will focus loosely around a
particular theme—sometimes a skill, sometimes a reading, sometimes
simply a discussion topic—and will offer a chance to build community
while learning something new.

Our first session will focus on academic CVs, hybrid CVs, and résumés.
Though they may seem formulaic at first glance, CVs can be structured in
many different ways, and the choices you make will affect how readers
interpret your material. Join Dr. Lauren Klein and Dr. Katina Rogers,
this Friday, October 25 from 2-3pm ET, for this session offering tips,
pitfalls, and overall guidance on putting your best foot forward.

Please bring your CV and/or résumé as well as any specific questions you
may want to discuss.

        From: Nyhan, Julianne <julianne.nyhan@tu-darmstadt.de>
        Subject: Voices Unbound: Lecture Series on Digital Oral History

Dear colleagues,

I'm pleased to invite you to our online seminar series

"Voices Unbound? Exploring new and/or possible directions in digital and
experimental oral history: Ringvorlesung seminar series in Winter Semester
2024/25".


What? A lecture series co-organised by TU Darmstadt, University College London,
Luxembourg Centre for Contemporary and Digital History (C²DH) and the Max-
Planck-Institut für Wissenschaftsgeschichte. The series is convened by Julianne
Nyhan (TU Darmstadt), Andrew Flinn, Andreas Vlachidis, and Marco Humbel (UCL),
Shih-Pei Chen (Max Planck Institute), and Gerben Zaagsma (C²DH), offering an
important way of keeping up to date with the methodological and theoretical
state of the art in digital oral history. We invited speakers to present work on
recent technological developments that may hold promise for digital oral
history. In this way, the seminar series appeals to (digital) oral historians,
digital humanists and scholars of the history of information, memory and
knowledge systems.

Where?
The lecture series is offered in a hybrid, online format, with TU Darmstadt
students attending the lecture hall in person and other colleagues joining
remotely. Talks will be recorded and published on the media channels of the
respective universities to ensure a permanent record of the symposium.

When? Mondays 14.25 – 15.45 from 14 October 2024 – 3 February 2025

Registration to attend online: Eventbrite<https://www.eventbrite.co.uk/e/voices-
unbound-tickets-1048687140467>

Programme: https://hdsm.hypotheses.org/3657

All best, Julianne
