Next steps (I)
Suggest you establish a Steering Committee comprising RHDs (and possibly ECRs) to determine:
- Realistic priorities amongst the ideas put forward
- Funding requirements & business case(s)- An action plan
Any volunteers?What involvement needed now from
CCI staff?
Next steps (II)
Immediate projects to consider:- CCI RHD online social network (Facebook?
Ning?)- Reading groups- Writing groups (develop co-authored
papers)
These can be initiated at no cost with volunteer effort
Finally.....
We would appreciate your feedback on how to enhance the jam process
