## The core meetings
The TeDCog group is organized around weekly meetings. All members are strongly encouraged to attend because the meetings allow for discussion of ideas and keep everyone informed about current developments. The weekly meetings also regularly feature external speakers from all around the world.

The weekly meeting is being held on Thursdays 1-2pm UK time. This is a hybrid seminar style meeting (you can attend virtually or in-person). The schedule for the current academic year can be found [here](https://airtable.com/appU49t91iVUjzw0j/shrlAkGSJtGQBTuap).

In addition, some sessions are followed by another 45 minutes set aside for professional development. See the “syllabus” [here](https://airtable.com/appWMhN35S79h8Rfa/shr4v87j5H1PE6yts).
