    This event has given me the opportunity to engage my passion and creativeness,expand my communication and organisation skills and to nurture my con denceto network effectively. Although I started with a strong desire to lead people

    into the world of animal sensory perception and explain the exciting way I was hoping to apply this to my upcoming research the event became so much morethan that. By encouraging me to collaborate with students from other schools

    and staff members in departments I would never have had cause to contact, aswell as exploring the University services and facilities the ILW Team helped meto nd a whole world that I was not aware of and gave me the tools to feel like

    a professional that belonged within it. The step by step guidance and support made it all possible and it will be something I will always remember.

    Promotion

    Promotion of your event is an important factor on how well

    attended it is. Proper promotion is not just a distinctive orpretty poster, but it is informative text, simple contact andsign-up options and a clear purpose or direction.

    When creating promotional materials, you do not have tobe a graphic designer or a a web developer (but thoseskills de nitely help). What you do need to consider are

    the channels you are going to use to reach prospectiveattendees.

    What of ine/physical channels could you use? E.g. Word of mouth, paper poster, yers. And how could you use these channels to the best effect?

    What online/digital channels could you use? E.g. Facebook, Twitter, bloggers. And how

    could you use these channels to the best effect?
