Developing Practice Across Tertiary Education
College Expo is the most exciting professional learning event for tertiary education in Scotland. In response to feedback, we are excited to be extending the reach of College Expo with the introduction of the College Expo Roadshows – three panel discussion sessions which will take place around the country.
Join us at the very first College Expo Roadshows for three lively face-to-face panel sessions discussing key issues, hosted by colleges around Scotland.
