Communication Committee - submit your work for ACBS to highlight!
Communication Committee - submit your work for ACBS to highlight!The Communications Committee is working to strengthen knowledge transfer and exchange within the ACBS community and beyond. Part of this work involves creating a system for ACBS to platform and amplify members’ experience and news via their social media and other dissemination outlets.
To this end, the Communications Committee invites members, SIGs, and Chapters to submit “highlights” via the ACBS website. In this context, a “highlight” refers to a community member’s achievement or service, a resource or tool for clinical practice, a peer-reviewed publication, and any other output suitable for sharing via social media and ACBS newsletters. The definition of “highlight” is purposefully broad to allow for a range of content to be shared. You may submit a highlight for yourself or another group/individual, however, we ask that you ensure you have the group’s/individual’s permission before submitting your highlight.
We understand that many of our members are overstretched, and we sincerely ask that the ACBS community come together to support this project. There are many benefits to highlighting your work and experiences, including and not limited to:
- Evidencing knowledge transfer and exchange for funders/employers
- Helping your clinical tools to reach more people
- Increasing your visibility within the ACBS community
- Expanding CBS outside our bubble
- Cultivating connectedness within our community
- Growing the ACBS membership.
We look forward to sharing your highlights!
