2026 European Learning & Teaching Forum - ‘Impactful staff development for educational transformation’

Dates: 12-13 February 2026

Registration deadline: 26 December 2025

The rise of artificial intelligence, changing demographics, labour market demands and learning needs have given us all cause for reflection on how higher education can safeguard its fitness-for-purpose and relevance in the future.

These developments, as well as larger-scale societal shifts towards a knowledge economy, point to a need for more innovative approaches to learning and teaching. So, how can staff development be (re- )designed to facilitate innovation in learning and teaching, with systemic impact on student learning?

Join to discuss:

• Developing staff’s capacity to adequately use – and perhaps even themselves develop – innovative pedagogical methods, resources and tools
• Giving due support and recognition to early adopters and evaluating impact
• Equipping staff with the agility to adapt to and tackle future educational challenges, while encouraging them to become innovators
