International RSE day in the Nordics

October 14, 9-15 CEST / 10:00 - 16:00 EEST

The International RSE Day is to celebrate Research Software Engineers around the world and raise awareness for the increasingly relevant discipline of Research Software Engineering.

The Nordic-RSE association is contributing to the International RSE day with an exciting program around community building and raising awareness for RSEs!

Schedule

October 14th

(all times in CEST)

All day, at anytime come and say hello in https://coderefinery.zulipchat.com in our nordic-rse/international RSE day Oct 14 stream. We do not have any registration form for this event but we would like to encourage our community to come along in zulip to say hello!
09:00 Introduce yourself (2 hours come along helpdesk session in zulip chat) The goal of this session is to provide support to prepare a 1 min video about yourself:
- your name, institution, RSE project you are working on e.g. what software are you contributing to (language, topic and whatever you can say in less than 1 minute!)
All the videos will be published in our youtube channel and we will also make a "wall of fame" on the nordic-RSE website.

Nordic-RSE staff will provide helpdesk in our nordic-rse/international RSE day Oct 14 stream so they can support you to prepare the video but of course, feel free to skip this session and send us directly the link to your 1 minute video!

If you want to see an example of what you can have in your 1mn video, have a look here. Once your video is ready, share the link with us on our nordic-rse/international RSE day Oct 14 stream.
11:00 Lunch break
13:00 TIL ('Today I Learned') session
- This session is all about sharing the small things that we learn now and then, that others may also find useful.
- You can find a growing collection of TIL on our Zulip #help/TIL channel that can serve as inspiration.
- The idea for this afternoon is to write blogs/documents about them to share them with the community via the Nordic-RSE website.
15:00 Wrap up and thank you to everyone!
