The Annual Conference is the high point of the UALL year, and we are pleased that our 2015 Conference will be held at the University of Strathclyde between Wednesday, 11 and Friday, 13 March.  Details of the Conference and Registration Form are attached.

The theme of Making the Lifelong Learning University of Reality, has strands addressing the context of adult learning, adult and professional learning, and learning communities.  The Conference will combine plenary and workshop sessions, and proposals are invited for papers and poster sessions.

The Conference will start on the Wednesday evening with a Civic Reception at Glasgow City Chambers at which we welcome all our delegates, international members and guests to Glasgow.  This will be followed by two days conference and will finish on Friday with lunch.  The Drinks Reception and Conference Dinner will be held on the Thursday evening at the stylish House for an Art Lover, which was designed by Rennie Mackintosh.

I very much hope you will be able to join us, and I would be grateful if you could circulate details of our conference to your colleagues and to anyone within your institution who may be interested in joining us.

Call for Papers

The Conference has a reputation for offering opportunities for practitioners and researchers to present their work to the academic community. Papers, abstracts and other proposals are invited on the three strands of the conference theme.  They may describe and discuss innovative developments and practice, and/or empirical or theoretical research.  You are encouraged to take into account your own working context when submitting your proposals.  Proposals are welcome from those working in different countries and learning contexts.  Please send your proposal of no more than 300 words by 2 January 2015 to me at: [email protected].

I look forward to seeing you in Glasgow.

With best wishes,

Lucy
