Conferences

The Annual NAMSS Conference is held once a year over two days and has sold-out for the past five years. We offer delegates the chance to attend up to 3 workshops on each day as well as key note speakers, exhibitions and a gala dinner.

NAMSS Annual Conference 2007

In 2007 we held our most successful conference to date with feedback from members we redesigned the timing and format of the annual NAMSS Conference and saw record members attend.

The conference was opened by Bill Rammell MP who gave an engaging and thought provoking speech on the future of Further Education provision.

Our second key note Kat Fletcher looked at the real challenges of developing learner engagement strategies.
