[Jinfo] Now with Events for Professional Development

March 16, 2009

Jinfo now includes information-related events, to create a more well-rounded career centre.

Workshops, conferences, degree programmes, networking, online events and more.

Since its launch, Jinfo has been known as the central location for advertising and finding jobs in information. But even those who are not actively seeking their next opportunity care about supporting their job security and resilience in a difficult market.

Jinfo Events takes the site to the next level of career support, with listings of events, degree programmes, workshops, networking and online learning to support information-related roles. The searchable database is free for users, and the free weekly Jinfo Update keeps subscribers informed about the most recently listed events, as well as vacancies.

Jinfo is published by Free Pint Limited, a UK-based publisher of sites and resources to support information work worldwide. Events have previously been published in FreePint Events, and promoted via the twice-monthly FreePint Newsletter.

With the move of FreePint Events to Jinfo Events, event organisers gain greater visibility in front of a highly targeted audience, and users have more flexibility in how they find resources.

Among the enhancements of Jinfo Events:

• More search and filtering options
• More detailed listings
• Full range of events, from informal to degree-granting, at all levels of knowledge
• International offerings, plus online options
