AGM MEETING MINUTES
......................................................................................
Please see below for the minutes of this years Annual General Meeting for your site.



SKILL SWAP
......................................................................................
SkillSwap's next FREE training event is entitled "Everything you wanted to know about graphic design but were afraid to ask" and will be held on Mon 8th Dec between 6pm-9pm in the CSV training rooms at the BBC building on Queens Road.
This talk is aimed at anyone whose work may involve some graphic design but who want to expand their background knowledge. Most of what’s covered would be familiar to anyone who has studied art or design at degree level. The intention isn’t to demonstrate how to design this or that but to explain the origin and purpose of some general principles and how they can improve design effectiveness.
Registration for this talk is open now. SkillSwap events get booked up very quickly, so early registration is essential.

If you are interested in registering for this event, or would like more details on future short courses please visit skillswap.brightonnewmedia.org
