Pearson to sponsor AoC Sport Annual Conference

16th May 2022

AoC Sport is delighted to welcome Pearson on board as our Curriculum and Policy strand sponsor for the AoC Sport Annual Conference 2022.

The event takes place at De Vere Jubilee Conference Centre Nottingham on Thursday 16 June, offering the opportunity for staff from across the FE sector to develop their thinking around how to further progress sport and physical activity in their college.

Sessions in the Curriculum strand will focus on topics such as teaching, learning and assessment; developing qualifications that support student employability; preparation for inspection and creating valuable work placement opportunities.

Gareth Reynolds, Product Manager Sport and Physical Activity at Pearson said, “We’re pleased to be sponsoring the Curriculum and Policy strand for the 2022 Annual Sports Conference. The event offers a great opportunity for college sport staff to come together and explore current issues and developments in the sector. We’re very much looking forward to being back face to face for this year’s event.”

Rachel Walker, AoC Sport Policy & projects Officer added, “As one of the largest providers of sport qualifications in the FE Sector, it’s fantastic to have Pearson supporting the Annual Conference this year. Their focus on ensuring they connect their programmes with progression pathways and industry standards is something we are also passionate about and we welcome their input in ensuring we’re able to offer an up to date and valuable experience for delegates.

The Annual Conference will also feature keynotes and breakout sessions focussed on AoC Sport’s other key work streams: Sport Development, Football & Competition. To find out more and to book your place click here.
