UHI Learning, Teaching, and Student Experience Conference 2026
The LTA and UHI conference organising group are delighted to announce that the next UHI Learning, Teaching, and Student Experience Conference will take place in Inverness and online on the 17 and 18 June. The focus for the conference is on Inclusive Tertiary Learning Journeys at UHI, and will explore how the UHI partnership supports students to engage in their learning journey, positively progress through their journeys and will consider the student learner journeys of the future. The conference will offer delegates the opportunity to participate in presentations, interactive workshops and the popular Gasta sessions as we welcome back Dr Tom Farrelly to the conference. For colleagues unable to present at the conference there is also the opportunity to pre-record a presentation to share at the conference on digital screens and through digital spaces and social media.
There will be limited accommodation for colleagues from UHI travelling from outwith Inverness and a small travel contribution to colleagues attending from the Islands. There will also be the opportunity to attend online for some of the sessions.
For colleagues attending on campus there will be networking opportunities throughout the conference and lunch will be provided on both days.
