ALT’s Annual Conference is one of the UK’s largest gatherings for digital learning and learning technology, offering a practical and inspiring forum for practitioners, researchers, managers and policy‑makers to solve problems, explore new ideas, reflect on practice and influence the future of digital learning.

We’re delighted to confirm that ALTC26 will take place on 20–21 October 2026 in Cardiff, hosted at the Holland House Hotel in the city centre, and registration is now open. We look forward to welcoming colleagues from across sectors for two days of community connection, shared learning and thoughtful discussion.

Learning Without Edges: Digitally‑enabled learning in an ever‑changing world

This year’s theme invites us to explore how digitally‑enabled learning can support continuous, connected and equitable learning throughout life. In a world shaped by rapid technological innovation, shifting labour markets and ongoing uncertainty, learning increasingly spans multiple contexts, modes and stages. Digital pedagogies and technologies are central to enabling this flexibility.
