How can I get involved?

There are a number of ways to get involved with Civil Service Live 2019.

Pitch a session

A great way to get involved in CSL19 is to pitch an exciting, engaging and inspiring session that could run during any of the events next year.

Sessions should be relevant for all civil servants, and meet the aims of CSL 2019:

EDUCATE civil servants by sharing information and new ideas that change thinking and allow civil servants to learn new skills.

ENGAGE civil servants by making them feel part of a brilliant civil service, demonstrating excellent cross departmental working and building networks of civil servants who can support each other to improve outcomes.

INSPIRE civil servants to adopt the vision and demonstrate leadership, learn new skills and improve their office environment to provide better public services.

If you have an idea for a session, that meets the objectives and you think your colleagues will want to attend, please apply by clicking here.

Exhibit

Having an exhibition stand at CS Live is one of the many ways to share and exchange ideas, meet with a wide range of civil servants and raise awareness of the work you do.

If you would like to apply to exhibit this year, please visit this online form.

Volunteer

CS Live is powered by the enthusiastic and energetic volunteers at each all the Civil Service Live events.

Our volunteers get the unique opportunity to engage with colleagues, to learn from seminars and to be more involved with Civil Service Live itself.

If you would like to volunteer for any of the events, please register here. You will be prompted for a password to access the site. The password is “Support”.

You can find out more about volunteering at the events by viewing the 2019 Volunteer Information Pack.

Spot Mentoring

Do you think you have what it takes to be a mentor? Are you already a mentor? Well, we need you!

Over the past four years, Civil Service Live has paid host to a Spot Mentoring zone, where civil servants can sign up to a short mentoring session and get a taste of the benefits of having a mentor. Many are inspired to find their own mentor following the events.

If you are a Senior Civil Servant and would like to spend just 90 minutes offering Spot Mentoring sessions at any one of the events, please revert back to the website at the end of November where you will be able to fill in an online form.

CS Live Connect

With 19,000 civil servants attending CS Live, we want to help you meet new people and broaden your networks.

Over the course of CS Live, we offer you the opportunity to Connect with other civil servants in a number of ways:

Come along and meet people at the Connect Zone at each of the events, bring your breakfast or your lunch and have a chat with other people keen to meet others
There is the opportunity to Speed Connect at each event - head over to the Connect Zone and sign up to take part.
