Once your application proposal for your distinguished visitor has been accepted by the SICSA SGA Board, please follow these guidelines to ensure your visit meets our requirements. 1. Details of visits (and associated events such as seminars and presentations) should be emailed to admin@sicsa.ac.uk at least one month in advance. A mini‐biography of the visitor (150 – 250) words should be forwarded at the same time. This information will be made available via the SICSA web pages and will give the opportunity for members of the SICSA community to see who is coming and to plan possible interaction with them. 2. The proposer should take steps to arrange for distinguished visitor presentations to be recorded and made available through the SICSA web site (this could be on a local or other site with a link or they could be stored directly on the SICSA site). This is to ensure that staff and students who were not able to attend can view the appropriate content. It also allows SICSA to have a tangible record of visits, which will be available after the visits are complete. 3. In order to allow SICSA to gain maximum value and to build on visits, proposers should write a short (approx. 300 word) report on the visit. This should detail the activities undertaken, the links/collaborations that have been created and/or enhanced and, importantly, activities or actions which are planned as a result. Payment may not be made until this has been received. |
