I had never attended an organization like this before and surely I have learned a lot.
Ayse Görgün, Cukurova University
An amazing experience to attend such a great symposium, lovely memories and a lovely company really.
Zeinab Younis, British University Egypt
It was the best experience of my teaching career and I hope to replicate it someday.
Tracy Bhoola, York University
It was a truly amazing event and I came away with the feeling that every academic should experience this kind of conference format.
Richard Bale, Brunel University
Fantastic organisation, fantastic people and fantastic place – and a great result pending!
Martin Eley, Birmingham City University
I had an amazing time and it was everything that I hoped it would be, and that’s before you take into account the wonderful food, trips and weather that we were treated to.
David Watson, Hong Kong Polytechnic University
The way the sessions were organised was fantastic and gave us great direction over the three days. That and the continuous stream of calories via the cakes, fruit, smoothies and coffee in addition to the wonderful choice of food venues meant even us weird vegans stayed fully energized.
Jeffrey Lewis, University of Cardiff
I have been to many conferences and symposiums but this was the ultimate. I am afraid that everything I attend now that is not like LiHE will be a disappointment.
Eurika Jansen van Vuuren, University of Johannesburg

These innovations are reshaping pedagogical strategies and enhancing inclusivity in our classrooms.

Explanation of fee structure. LiHE operates with an all-inclusive symposium package, contrary to other conference organisers, who charge you for individual activities. We believe that the LiHE-model is fairer because you know what you get. All are inclusive, so you are not surprised by extra charges during the symposium. With the LiHE-model, you know exactly what your symposium budget is *before* you go, so you can apply for funding.
