SoR Students' and New Professionals' Confidence Series
Supporting you to be confident as you grow
As you progress through your educational and career pathway, building competence, skills and knowledge, this series will focus on supporting you to be confident as you grow. Spanning a full academic year, these monthly sessions will provide something for every level – whether you are a first year student or a Band 5 radiographer.
Join us as we work on building confident foundations and prioritising self care and wellbeing, increasing confidence in the clinical environment, managing conflict, working with the impostor voice and becoming a confident leader.
Registration is free for SoR members and open to all students and new professionals.
This content will be specific to the student journey and include sharing of advice and experiences by newly qualified radiographers. It is aimed at students and Band 5 radiographers at the beginning of their journey, and their comfort to speak freely and ask questions is our primary concern. If you are a member of the established workforce and would like us to run webinars on a similar theme, please email conferences@sor.org.
Building confident foundations
Webinar
Monday 9 October 2023
This session takes us right back to the core of confidence building. Do you recognise confidence? How does it feel to you? We look at assessing your self-confidence and identifying the barriers associated with it. We will also discuss the importance of taking positive steps, harnessing discomfort and celebrating achievements.
This is the first session in our Students and New Professionals Confidence Series, and we highly recommend attending this webinar or watching the recording before progressing on to the remaining sessions in the series.
Confident clinical placements
Webinar
Monday 13 November 2023
Whether you are a first year student looking ahead to your first clinical placement, an established student who would like to build confidence in the clinical setting, or a new graduate ready to take up your first post, join us as we share advice and experiences of adapting to new environments, integrating into the team setting, building rapport with patients, making good decisions, and caring for yourself and others in distressing situations.
Managing conflict confidently
Webinar
Monday 15 January 2024
Conflict in any setting can be challenging, and as a student or newly qualified member of staff it is easy to feel vulnerable or overwhelmed in these situations. During this session, we will be discussing some of the best ways to approach conflict in the clinical and academic setting, supporting you to resolve challenges competently and confidently.
There will also be time for Q&A with our officers at the end of this session, as well as signposting to other useful resources.
Positive wellbeing and self care for students and new professionals
Webinar
Monday 4 March 2024
The first rule of compassionate care is to look after yourself.
This session will cover the impact of wellbeing on your mental health, discussing tools for self-actualisation and assessing your wellbeing. We will also talk about how you can plan to thrive, implementing and reviewing positive steps on your self-care journey, focusing on maintaining a healthy balance in your work and home life. As always, we will include time for Q&A, and signpost to useful resources and contacts.
