Book now for National Conference 2024

Why you should become a supporter of the AELP National Conference?

 

AELP’s National Conference is held in June each year and has become a flagship event within the skills and employment calendar. It regularly attracts over 600 attendees per day and is used as a platform to concentrate debate on the strategic vision and planning direction for the sector.

Alongside our main agenda and wide range of workshops each day, we are also hosting an extensive exhibition area, providing delegates with the opportunity to network and speak to key stakeholders operating in the sector.

We are seeking sponsorship partners who can help us achieve this. You can help us to ensure the AELP National Conference remains a 'must attend' event in the FE and Skills calender. In turn, we will help you maximise the opportunities your organisation has to engage with attendees at this year's conference either through our exhibition or sponsorship packages.
