Cambridge Teaching Forum
The Cambridge Teaching Forum is an annual event open to everyone who teaches or supports students’ learning across the University of Cambridge - undergraduate and postgraduate. It provides a stimulating environment for staff to learn about innovative approaches to higher education in Cambridge and to meet colleagues, share ideas and reflect on some of the hot topics in higher education.
The full-day event includes keynote speakers and panel discussions on selected themes, as well as parallel sessions of individual presentations and workshops covering a range of topics which delegates can choose between.
