Register now for one of our Distance Learning Forums this year!

These Forums are a chance for staff involved in any aspect of distance education to network, share good practice and to discuss ideas and issues of relevance to distance learning.

Sharing practice, tackling issues and networking are primary goals!

The approach in each session is low-key, informal and conversational. 😁

While topics are generally targeted to either administration or teaching matters, anyone involved in distance learning in any way is welcome to come to any of the sessions.

Here are the dates for the 2020 Forums. Follow the links to register.
