ICED Conferences
The ICED Conference is held every two years and is organised by Member Networks.
Taking place around the world, the conference offers educational developers, academics, administrators and students a wonderful opportunity to network with each other and discuss new research, theories, and developments in our field. Here’s what some recent participants said:
“It was great to be able to access different communities of scholarly work on educational development, some of which have not previously emerged within my own context.”
“The general atmosphere was welcoming and authentic.”
“The sessions were thought-provoking. I found value in all the sessions I attended.”
“My first ICED conference and will definitely try to go to future conferences!”
The average participant rating for the 2022 conference was 4.5 out of 5 (face-to-face attendance) and 4.3 out of 5 (for online attendance). Check out the programs and materials below from a few recent events. We hope you can join us at future conferences!
