PSECCO Community Call
Join the upcoming PSECCO Community Call on November 12, 2026 at 2.00pm ET | 12.00pm MT | 10.00am AKT
Following last month's announcement about the next phase of the Polar Science Early Career Community Office (PSECCO), PSECCO will host a community call to share updates on its plans for the coming two years and gather feedback from members of the polar early career community.
Over the past four years, PSECCO has worked to respond to needs identified by early career researchers through funding opportunities, professional development events, mentorship programs, and community-building activities. As both PSECCO and the broader polar community continue to evolve, the community office is seeking input on current needs, priorities, and opportunities facing early career researchers.
During the call, participants will have the opportunity to share perspectives on emerging community needs and learn more about PSECCO's future focus areas, including continued support for mentorship opportunities, regional hub development, and online professional development programming. Updates will also be provided on changes to PSECCO's scope of work and the activities that will shape the community office over the next two years.
Register for the PSECCO Community Call here. We hope you'll join us to help shape the next chapter of PSECCO and connect with others from across the polar early career community.
FAQ for virtual PSECCO-hosted events
All participants are expected to follow PSECCO’s community guidelines throughout the entirety of the event.
We highly encourage participants to have a working camera that is on during events, as it allows for better engagement. However, a camera is not a requirement to attend PSECCO events unless otherwise stated in the event description.
- Many of the events that we host are recorded. All recorded events are made available after the event on the Center for Education, Engagement and Evaluation (CEEE)’s YouTube channel in a PSECCO playlist to be viewed, within approximately one week of the event. All relevant links/resources are also made available after the event.
- Some of the events that we host heavily rely on real-time engagement or are discussion-based. These events are often not recorded. People will benefit most from these events if they attend them in their entirety.
- If you arrive late at an event, tech support will still be able to let you in up to 15-minutes into the event. After that time, no new attendees will be admitted, as we design our events to build upon the content foundation that is built at the start.
If you know that you can’t attend the event anymore, please cancel your registration by emailing psecco@colorado.edu no later than 48 hours before the event. This enables those who may be waitlisted to attend the event and also helps the PSECCO team accurately plan for the event.
- Upon registering for an event, you will receive a confirmation email from Constant Contact with a meeting link.
- We send pre-event reminder emails 2 weeks, 1 week, and 1 day prior to the event. The meeting link is hyperlinked in each of these reminder emails.
- If you are unable to access the meeting link through these methods, please email psecco@colorado.edu no later than 24 hours before the event.
