AiG Month: events
AiG Month events are:
- listed on our Eventbrite page, follow us there to find out more!
- virtual and held using Microsoft Teams, you can dial in (or present) wherever you are based
- held on Tuesdays, Wednesdays and Thursdays, starting at 10:00, 12:00, and 14:00

AiG Month events are designed with government analysts in mind, but we also hold sessions of interest to colleagues from Policy Profession, Operational Delivery Profession (ODP), and elsewhere across the Civil Service. Our events are also open to the general public, to share the important work of government analysts more widely.
Since AiG Month began in 2020, we’ve held hundreds of events, with thousands of colleagues tuning in to learn more about important analysis work and develop their analysis skills.
