This day is a great opportunity to share practice and to see how PebblePad is being used in health for teaching, learning and assessment. Previously held over half a day, due to the large amount of innovative use we currently have we have extended this to a full day. Use in clinical assessment continues to grow and now has a community of users, a workshop will be open to anyone to join. Preparation for the requirements of professional healthcare roles is also a theme for the design of resources at programme level and as a 'take away' Nurse Revalidation is one example. We are seeing more and more skills teaching and assessment being managed in PebblePad and PebblePocket. The event is open to anyone and we’ve lowered attendance costs to £50.00* to encourage delegates to stay over and attend MiniBash (UK) the following day.
*Price applicable for attending Healthcare Symposium and MiniBash UK 2018. Otherwise, a price of £65.00 applies.

As ever, MiniBash UK is set to be jam-packed with 'not to be missed goodness' and designed to be big on value - no matter whether you are forced to arrive a little late or leave a little early (though, don't forget, our drinks reception is one very good reason to stay till the close of play).
MiniBash UK is always very popular as it's a chance for our community to catch up and share ideas over coffee and cake. So we do recommend that you're quick off the mark in signing up - doing so will also mean you can take advantage of our early bird pricing.

The theme of this year’s conference is scaling-up, though many of you may prefer to think of this in terms of moving to the next level. Our intention is to reflect the growing maturity of practice with portfolios, portfolio-inspired learning and teaching, and the platforms that support these approaches. We have observed that the institutions and organisations we work with are grappling with a growing list of challenges to which technologies like ours seem to provide an effective answer - especially when deployed thoughtfully, and at scale.
We are seeking submissions that talk to the transition from small scale, often single-point use of PebblePad to uses which are more fully-integrated into the wider learning experience. We are particularly interested in showcasing and celebrating successful program-wide or institution-wide projects. Like all previous ‘Bashes there will be a strong focus on pedagogy, especially on learning and assessment design. But it is impossible to really scale up without senior stakeholder involvement, strategic planning, good project management, and having carefully thought through integrations with other institutional systems – so we would like to include presentations which consider ideas, challenges and successes from these perspectives.
Of course, we know that scaling up means different things to different people in different contexts. We are also aware that some people are doing remarkable work at smaller scale and so we will also provide space in the programme to showcase the very best of this work.
Here are some key dates for your diary:
