Question 1

Who is UKEduCamp for?

Accepted Answer

UKEduCamp is for those keen on improving services in higher and further education. Whether you're in an academic or a support role, or working elsewhere in your organisation, if you're involved in change and improvement centered on user needs, you'll find like-minded people here!

Question 2

What is an unconference?

Accepted Answer

Essentially, it’s a conference without predefined topics or talks. There is a high-level structure and overarching theme, however the topics are generated on the day by the attendees. The first activity of the day invites attendees to pitch ideas for sessions, which we then organise into a programme

Question 3

What kind of things can I pitch?

Accepted Answer

Anything that you think will be interesting or relevant to the attendees. You might come with something prepared to share, or you might like to lead a discussion. Or you might just like to be part of a group considering a topic or issue, but you don’t want to lead or facilitate it yourself.

Question 4

What talks will there be at UKEduCamp?

Accepted Answer

It’s up to you! The beauty of an unconference is that the attendees set the agenda by pitching sessions at the start of the day. During pitching, you will hear all of the potential sessions going on during the day, and you get to attend and participate in those which interest you the most.

Question 5

Can suppliers attend?

Accepted Answer

If you work for a supplier to the higher/further education sector, or public sector organisations more generally, you are also welcome to come along and share your expertise, experience opinions, but this is not a place to sell your product or pitch your services.

Question 6

How much does UKEduCamp cost to attend?

Accepted Answer

UKEduCamp is free to attend. We're very lucky to have some fantastic sponsors who have made it possible for the event to be free for everyone.

Question 7

Will lunch be provided?

Accepted Answer

Yes. We will be providing lunch for attendees. If you have any specific dietary requirements or allergies, please let us know via the sign-up form. If conference lunches aren't your thing, you are also welcome to head out in to Sheffield to grab a bite to eat during the lunch break.

Question 8

Can I arrive late or leave early?

Accepted Answer

Yes. However if you wish to pitch and run a session you will need to be at the event during the pitching period (roughly 10-11am) and be available to run your session. If you have restrictions on your availability, there will be an opportunity to discuss this with the organising team on the day.
