How to be a VIP at the Education Forum 2018

Think you know conferences? Think again. The Education Forum invites senior education professionals to network free of charge

The Education Forum is a unique event designed specifically for education procurement professionals.

Taking place on November 12th and 13th at Whittlebury Hall, Northamptonshire, the event is entirely free to attend, with the invitation also including all meals and refreshments, overnight accommodation and a place at the gala dinner with entertainment.

This is unlike any traditional expo or conference. You will be provided with a bespoke itinerary of pre-arranged, face-to-face meetings with suppliers who match your requirements and upcoming projects. That means that there’s no time wasted and no hard sell.

You’ll have the opportunity to meet with suppliers covering a wide range of product and service areas, including building initiatives, catering, environmental, cleaning, classroom IT equipment, multimedia technology, furniture, halls of residence, healthy lifestyle, lighting, maintenance, software, security risk and management, IT services and much more.

As one of our VIP guests, you’ll be joining representatives from some of the UK’s leading state and independent schools and colleges, plus educational organisations, including ARK Global Academy, BIMM, Bosco Catholic Education Trust, Deeside House Education Trust, Isaac Newton Academy, Sherborne Girls’ School, Shireland Collegiate Academy Trust, University of the West of Scotland, and Wolverhampton Grammar School.

Plus, there will be ample opportunities to meet with your peers during the networking coffee breaks and lunches to discuss challenges and opportunities.

Elsewhere, you’ll also have the chance to attend a series of seminars throughout the two days – all free of charge, too. One of our keynotes for 2018 will be ‘Managing extreme difficult and persistent behaviour in the workplace’ which will be presented by Martin Smith, Specialist Training Consultant at ITC Consulting.

We have a limited number of VIP places for delegates at this November’s Education Forum, so register your place swiftly.
