Podcast Episode 12: Expert Discussions and Joint Statements

bySean Mosby

 

In the 12th episode of the Expert Matters Podcast, we discuss Expert Discussions and Joint Statements. Joint Statements are critical documents in any proceeding, so join us as we discuss how to do them well and avoid the common pitfalls, look at the EWI's recently refreshed guidance, and hear top tips from Beth Rigby and Jessica Thurston, who present the EWI webinar on Expert Discussions and Joint Statements. And as usual, we begin with our segment on 'What's going on at EWI?' and end with 'Newsreel', a quick fire discussion of the key things you need to know this month. 

You can listen to Episode 12 of the Expert Matters Podcast on a number of podcast apps, including spotify and apple podcasts. If you can't find the podcast on your favourite app, let us know at expertmatters@ewi.org.uk.
