“In all honesty, Learnovation is one of the best conferences I have attended in a while. As an academic who goes to a lot of education and other conferences, it has been a very engaging and compelling day. I have learned a tonne from other organisations and I’ve made a tonne of connections. It’s been a really fabulous experience”.
