Theme: Learning Partnerships

This year's conference explores the concept of Learning Partnerships and how these can enhance and support our teaching and learning communities.

Our Case Study Speakers will share information about the Learning Partnerships they have been involved in and how these have been actioned, from planning to fruition.

Our Keynote and Featured Speakers will introduce you to an array of ideas about different types and styles of Learning Partnerships and how you could become involved. Their examples will be drawn from both large and small organisational samples and will encompass a broad range of possible partners.

Our Sponsors and Exhibitors will showcase partnership opportunities and how these could benefit you and your students.


The conference was a real eye opener! As I am new to the delivery of online learning I came away with a lot of new and innovative ways to deliver training using the new technologies available. This conference is a real credit to the organisers and a huge benefit to the participants. Thanks!

Peta Hill, Central Queensland Institute of TAFE Workplace Training Officer

What is a Learning Partnership'?

A Learning Partnership can be anything you want it to be. You can form a Learning Partnership with:

Learning Partnerships may be around people, content, technology, activities, issues, shared objectives - anything of common interest. They may extend across communities and even countries.

A Learning Partnership lasts as long as you need it to. Some partnerships operate for many years while others are formed to address particular issues or projects that are only relevant for a specific time.

Having a "Learning Partner" can be both a powerful and empowering experience for all those involved: both partners, their respective organisations and most importantly, the learning clientele.

Questions we'll explore

These questions and more will be addressed at Learning Technologies 2006 - along with lots of practical hints and tips from our case studies and demonstrations of learning technologies from our rich exhibitor community.

Program Highlights

Pre-conference workshops

Panel Discussion
