Within the groups, there will be different roles such as a scribe and group lead (this can be changed each semester). Everyone is really lovely, and each VIP group seems to get on really well and work efficiently as a team.<\/p>\r\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\r\n<p style=\"text-align: center\"><a href=\"https:\/\/blogs.bath.ac.uk\/students\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/81\/2022\/02\/VIP-logo.png\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignnone size-medium wp-image-7476\" src=\"https:\/\/blogs.bath.ac.uk\/students\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/81\/2022\/02\/VIP-logo-300x107.png\" alt=\"\" width=\"300\" height=\"107\" srcset=\"https:\/\/blogs.bath.ac.uk\/students\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/81\/2022\/02\/VIP-logo-300x107.png 300w, https:\/\/blogs.bath.ac.uk\/students\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/81\/2022\/02\/VIP-logo.png 602w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 300px) 100vw, 300px\" \/><\/a><br \/><br \/>Vertically Integrated Project<\/p>\r\n<p><br \/><br \/>Lots of opportunities have arisen from being a VIP member such as new contacts and the opportunity to present to a panel about the Bath to 5K. There are also many different VIP groups, so everyone can get involved with different topics depending on what takes their own interests. Becoming a VIP member was very easy, and the University of Bath helped the process to be very easy and welcoming, I would recommend it. I also really like how the team is not hierarchal, and that everyone is able to have their own say and influence. I have loved getting to know my team and making an active difference to the city of Bath and can\u2019t wait to see what is coming this semester. <br \/><a href=\"https:\/\/blogs.bath.ac.uk\/students\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/81\/2022\/02\/Teamwork.png\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"size-medium wp-image-7477 aligncenter\" src=\"https:\/\/blogs.bath.ac.uk\/students\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/81\/2022\/02\/Teamwork-300x159.png\" alt=\"\" width=\"300\" height=\"159\" srcset=\"https:\/\/blogs.bath.ac.uk\/students\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/81\/2022\/02\/Teamwork-300x159.png 300w, https:\/\/blogs.bath.ac.uk\/students\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/81\/2022\/02\/Teamwork.png 383w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 300px) 100vw, 300px\" \/><\/a><\/p>\r\n<p style=\"text-align: center\">Teamwork<\/p>\r\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>My VIP Experience I have now been a Vertically Integrated Project - VIP - member since September 2021, and I thought it might be useful to document some of my experiences.
