About AiG Month events
We are currently commissioning expressions of interest (EOIs) to present at Analysis in Government (AiG) Month 2025: AiG Month presenter booking calendar
We’re seeking engaging, interesting, and informative events for this year’s AiG Month. You have until Friday 28 March 2025 to submit your EOI to present at AiG Month and share your skills and experience with a cross-government analyst audience.
AiG Month events will be:
- listed on our Eventbrite page, follow us there to find out about new events as they are scheduled
- 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
- totally free to attend.
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.
