MEETING TIMES AND FORMAT The usual meeting time is
6.00 for 6:30 p.m. and as of October 2005 the usual date will be the second
Tuesday of the month, although this is flexible to accommodate speakers. The
meeting itself lasts until about 8 pm, and we aim to be out of the drinks
room by 9 pm. /bigger>/fontfamily> Our standard format is a discussion meeting with an initial
keynote address followed by questions and contributions from the floor. The
keynote address may be by a Guest Speaker or by an ICEA member. We aim to hold nine meetings a year. In
the interests of topicality and to accommodate speakers’ travel arrangements,
we work to a short-term rolling programme rather that fixing an annual
programme in advance. MEETING CHARGES A small charge is made to cover the costs of drinks and other
refreshments, which are served before and after the meeting. The current charges are £4 for members,
£2.50 for students, and £10 for non-members. |
