Education SIG Round Table business rules.

In order to empower collaboration and facilitate open and transparent consideration of Australian Deer Association Education matters, the following business rules are provided:

• This is not a "shoot & scoot" forum, use the Education SIG Discussion topic template provided to list all matters for discussion.
• Use track changes to make comments.
• Keep the discussion respectful and positive
• If you bring a problem, bring some possible solutions with you. If you don't have a possible solution for your problem do more research, or speak with the Education SIG coordinators team.
• Opinion(s) are relevant, but facts carry more weight.
• If you need to cite a document please include a link to the document to enable others to review the document.
• Declare any bias or conflict of interest up front.
• Advise the group of any relevant qualifications and experience you may have to support your standpoint. This will improve everyone's knowledge and improve the program overall.
