IFNTF “Symposathon”
December 2nd 2024 -
Transforming Teaching Excellence: Future Proofing Education for All
About this Event

The International Federation of National Teaching Fellows (IFNTF) is pleased to host its third virtual “symposathon” (Symposium + Marathon) in December 2024.


IFNTF (https://www.ifntf.org) is a non-for-profit organization that aims to bring together award-winning teachers from across the world for the global advancement of excellence in learning and teaching in higher education. The federation was officially launched at the House of Lords in London, UK, in September 2016, and currently has members from Australia, Canada, Ireland, New Zealand, UK and the USA, and all members aim to work in collaboration on innovative projects and initiatives on teaching and learning pedagogies in higher education.


This is the sixth annual international summit/symposium held by IFNTF. The IFNTF First World Summit in 2017 in Birmingham, UK, featured the theme Defining Teaching Excellence across Disciplines. The IFNTF Second World Summit in Halifax, Canada, in 2018, was themed Nurturing Teaching Excellence across Disciplines. The IFNTF 2021 Symposium held in conjunction with the Canadian STLHE conference featured Shaping Teaching Excellence across Disciplines. In 2022, IFNTF held its first “symposathon” themed RE-Shaping Teaching Excellence: Pandemic and the New Now. The second symposathon themed Augmenting Teaching Excellence: Embracing the future of education with AI and Emerging Technologies was held in December 2023.


This year the theme of the symposathon will be Transforming Teaching Excellence for the future. In the rapidly evolving landscape of higher education, embracing transformation is key to sustaining and enhancing teaching excellence. The proposed theme for the next IFNTF conference, "Transforming Teaching Excellence for the Future," captures the necessity to adapt, innovate, and lead in a dynamic academic environment. The topics will range from Digital Transformation, Lifelong learning, Upskilling and Micro-credentialing, Competency-based education, Equity and Inclusion, Innovative Teaching Practices, and Mental health and well-being. The IFNTF symposathon will feature keynote speakers from Australia, Canada, New Zealand, the UK and the USA, presentations from authors of accepted papers, and participant-led breakout sessions and panel discussions.
