We are looking to provide an additional day at CETL-MSOR 2026 where we provide in-person workshops and training based on the topics our community is most interested in. We know that the financial climate makes it very difficult to attend in-person events during the year but recognise that our CETL-MSOR conference is where members are likely to obtain funding to attend. The steering group are therefore interested to gauge interest and ideas for the workshop day and have created a short MS Forms questionnaire which we would appreciate you completing. To provide you with the full information so far:

• The workshop day will take place on Wednesday 2^nd September at Heriot-Watt University, Edinburgh
• It will only be open to sigma-Network members
• There will be a small additional charge to cover the cost of room hire/food etc. for anyone who attends
• We intend to have a half-day and full-day option
• We are considering a hybrid offering

Please could I ask you to complete the following form: sigma Workshop Day at CETL-MSOR 2026 – Fill in form and by Friday 20^th March.

If you have any questions or comments, please feel free to email Mark: chair@sigma-network.ac.uk.
