There will be four weeks of video-based conversations to learn from, culminating in a live celebration of professional practice and learning with keynotes and participatory discussion sessions.

Our event starts on 9 November and over four weeks we will release themed video-based discussions.

The hosts will draw together key ideas and offer reflective comments and questions to help you reflect on your own professional contexts and research interests. Each video will be about 60 minutes long.

On 5 December we will hold a live, online event which will celebrate the value of coaching, mentoring and professional conversations in educational settings with keynote sessions from Dr Jim Knight, Viv Grant and Johnny Uttley, access to themed discussion rooms to follow-up the video-based conversations and keynotes and a plenary session hosted by Prof. Rachel Lofthouse and Prof. Christian van Nieuwerburgh.
