• Spotme - proved success in 2008

Spotme - proved to be a major success in 2008. Spot-Me is a unique wireless handheld device which allowes you to network, communicate and build relationships at the conference. It revolutionises networking, enabling you to locate one another, exchange messages and swap electronic business cards.

Poster presentations - provide an opportunity for presenters to display the results and conclusions of their presented papers. The primary purpose of the poster presentations is to communicate information and ideas to fellow international education professionals. This format promotes informal individual conversations and the opportunity to exchange ideas and is a great way to meet fellow delegates.

Opening reception - We are pleased to announce that we'll be opening the conference with a reception at London's spectacular Victoria and Albert Museum. The V&A is the world's largest museum of decorative arts and design, housing a permanent collection of over 4.5 million objects.
