Description
Early Career Researchers (ECRs) play a crucial role in the LHC experiments. Since future experiments in particle physics can take decades to conceptualise, design, build and operate, today's ECRs are the leaders of tomorrow's experiments. The ECFA ECR panel conducted a survey about the training of ECRs in instrumentation. This poll however also yielded many other findings about issues of networking, recognition and diversity in instrumentation, that will as well be presented. The goal is to stimulate discussion about the needs of ECRs in instrumentation and what actions can be taken to help them.
