Please join the ASA Committee on Career Development (ASA CCD) at JSM 2023 in Toronto for an in person professional networking event!
The professional networking event is for students and early career statisticians to practice networking in a friendly environment. The event will be held in person on Sunday, August 6th from 2 - 4pm ET in the Intercontinental Toronto Centre, Room: I -- Ballroom B during the annual Joint Statistical Meetings (JSM) in Toronto, Canada.
During this professional networking event, attendees will listen to remarks from three featured speakers before practicing networking skills in a friendly, relaxed environment. To attend this professional networking event, please note that you must be registered for JSM 2023.
Featured speakers for the professional networking event include:
-
Madhumita (Bonnie) Ghosh-Dastidar, ASA-President Elect & Senior Statistician & Head, RAND Statistics Group
-
Emilda Rivers, Director, National Center for Science and Engineering Statistics (NCSES), National Science Foundation (NSF)
-
Mark Otto, Statistician at United States Fish and Wildlife Service
The ASA CCD needs mid to late career professionals from all areas (academia, industry, and government) to attend this event as volunteers, providing students and early career statisticians opportunities to practice networking. The more volunteers the better, so students and early career professionals have several people to practice with as they "rotate" through the crowd. Register to volunteer for the professional networking event during JSM 2023 using the following link: https://forms.gle/dnYNZZ14iSMsUtvH8
Please note that ASA CCD events are free and open to all, but events held at JSM require JSM registration to attend. For ASA CCD events, ASA membership is not required, but we hope that CCD events encourage you to join the ASA. Join the "Friends of CCD" email list to hear about upcoming CCD events and opportunities. We also welcome ideas from the community as to what you may wish to see next with CCD.
