UK Federation Town Hall Week

Posted on Monday, 1 June 2020

We’d hoped to do this in person, but obvious reasons mean we are running virtual UK federation "Town Hall" sessions across a whole week of 8th-13th June (at lunch times 1-2pm), using Zoom. We’ll be covering a variety of topics and plan on the sessions being not entirely didactic. So please come armed with questions. If there is anything you would like to see covered, please email me (mark.williams@jisc.ac.uk) in the next week and we’ll see if we can add it in.

Topics

  • Baseline in the UK federation
  • CoC, R&S, Sirtfi & other attributes
  • Shibboleth health check lessons
  • Publisher round table: Ask anything
  • SSO & aspects of content piracy
  • Delegated authentication
  • Readiness for Shibboleth v.4
  • VerifID: Commercial Student Verification
  • About T&I Consultancy

Format

The meeting will take place over Zoom.

Sessions will be recorded and openly viewable after the event. Any revisions to the schedule or changes to the joining details will be updated here.

We are happy for anyone to join. However, please contact Mark Williams (mark.williams@jisc.ac.uk) in advance for the meeting password.

Please note that the size of the room is set at 100 participants max so you may want to join early.

Black Lives Matter
In this time of the Further and Higher Education community responding to the Black Lives Matter campaign, you can find here a lightning talk (5 Mins) given by Mark Williams at the most recent GEANT TNC conference, which focused on the poor participation rates of BAME staff at conferences and events in our sector, entitled "Mansplaining Diversity" https://youtu.be/Zdpiwz2uj-o Edited by MarkWilliams ? on 16 June 2020, at 08:09 AM
