A week of practical, high-impact CPD designed for further education professionals


Join colleagues from across the sector for a dynamic programme of sessions focused on teaching and learning, wellbeing, leadership and the key challenges shaping FE today.

AoC Learning Week is back with a packed week of over 20 CPD sessions. Last year, over 4,200 college staff participated in the online event and sessions included developing learner resilience; wellbeing in action; maintaining high quality education through inspection framework changes; supporting learners with ADHD and autism; motivating mathematical models and methods and many more.

There will be sessions designed specifically for teaching staff, support staff, middle and senior managers in FE colleges. The full programme of sessions will be launched at the end of April.

Tickets are priced at just £350 per AoC-member college meaning all college staff can take part and benefit from this CPD week under the one ticket. Non-member college tickets are available at £500 +VAT.

Testimonials from 2025

"The training week with the Association of Colleges was truly outstanding. The sessions were not only expertly delivered but also highly relevant to the current challenges and opportunities within the sector. Every aspect of the programme exceeded my expectations, from the quality of the content to the level of engagement and support. I came away feeling inspired, better equipped, and more confident in applying what I’ve learned. A truly valuable experience!"
Rebecca D., Uxbridge College - HRUC

"I wasn't sure what to expect from these sessions, however, they were well organised, a good length of time, informative and I felt inspired. I learnt a lot of interesting facts and latest trends/initiatives that I will be able to use in my own practice. I hope there are more sessions like this in the future, I will definitely be clearing my diary to join."
Tracey Hilleard, Bath College

"I found that all of the sessions I attended were both informative and enjoyable with lots of takeaways. The presenters were all knowledgeable about their area of expertise."
Elaine Maxwell, Access Creative College

"This was a very efficiently organised e-conference, very accessible and user-friendly, with all resources used made available to participants at the earliest opportunity possible. There was a plethora of points one could take away from such a brilliant event that it would be unfair to mention a few points relating to a few of the sessions. Perhaps the most impressive thing is that each session moved above and beyond its narrow scope and this made CPD such a meaningful and motivational experience. Well done for everything!"
Rev Dr Edgar Mihas, Exeter College

"Great week of learning from the AoC. It's always good to know that you are not alone in this journey and space is given for educators to continue learning."
Latisha Palmer, New City College
