FE Zone Conference rate reduced to £45, travel help available

NUS is pleased to announce that, for the second year running, the Institute for Learning has generously agreed to sponsor the Further Education Zone Conference on 28 and 29 October in Liverpool.

This sponsorship means that we are able to announce a price reduction of 30% to £45 per delegate and also create a travel bursary for students' unions in special financial hardship.

Lee Davies, deputy chief executive of the Institute for Learning (IfL) said, “The Institute for Learning is proud of our continued support of the National Union of Students and the FE Zone Conference. I'm looking forward to hearing the ideas from this year's student representatives on what makes a brilliant teacher as part of our campaign on Teaching and Learning with NUS. IfL represents 170,000 teachers and trainers in further education and skills and the views of students are a key part to the professional development of our members and aim to enhance the learner experience."

Registrations are now open at the reduced price. If you would like to apply for help with your travel costs please get in touch with the relevant contact below:

Note: if you have already registered at the original price your invoice will be reduced.
