Important notes for Spark events:

  • Please arrive on time and ensure your attendance is recorded by an LSE member of staff. If you arrive more than 10 minutes after the session starts, your attendance will not be recorded, and you will not receive credit towards your Spark badge. Find out more about the Spark professional skills badge.
  • Do NOT register for the event with your LSE email address - This address will be deactivated when you leave Summer School and may create issues with awarding you your Spark badge.
