Council for Emerging and New Statisticians (CENS) was formed in 2012 by ENAR’s Regional Advisory Board (RAB) in 2012 to help ENAR better address the needs of all students and recent graduates. CENS is composed of 10 graduate students, post-doctoral fellows, or recent graduates, who are ENAR members from academia, government, or private industry. With the help of the RAB Liaison, CENS members collaborate to:
CENS seeks to advocate for the needs and concerns of students and recent graduates in collaboration with ENAR’s Regional Advisory Board. Through annual events at the ENAR Spring Meeting, CENS strives to promote the benefits of participating in the ENAR community, support the advancement of students and recent graduates, and facilitate stronger connections within the statistical community.
We will be recruiting new members March-April 2022! Each member is appointed to a 2-year term. Within CENS, three or four people are chosen to participate in the steering committee, which reports to the RAB chair. Members of the steering committee will serve an additional year on CENS. CENS members will meet in person yearly at the ENAR Spring Meeting and participate in conference calls throughout the year to plan events and address issues as they arise. If you are interested in joining CENS, please email enar.cens@gmail.com.
ENAR Networking Lunch
Tuesday, March 29, 2022 from 12:30 PM - 1:30 PM at local restaurants.
CENS will organize lunches for groups of attendees who share similar interests. The goal is to help attendees meet and network with each other. Although CENS will help to coordinate lunch at local restaurants, please note that lunch is at your own expense and CENS will not be able to cater to special dietary requirements. Closer to the meeting time, CENS will email all attendees interested in this networking event to request information to set up the groups and the lunch reservations.
Participants meet at the CENS table in the Exhibition Hall at 12:15 PM before walking with their assigned group to a nearby restaurant for networking and lunch! Participation is open to all meeting attendees. If you would like to participate, please select the CENS lunch option on the registration form or email CENS at enar.cens@gmail.com.
