We hope that the <strong>ANTF Symposium, being held in the Fusion Building, Talbot Campus, 11-12 May 2027<\/strong> might be an opportunity for us to celebrate what is great about working in higher education &#8211; the positive impact we can make on our students, on our colleagues, and on society.<\/p>\n<p class=\"x_MsoNormal\" style=\"text-align: left\" align=\"center\">We&#8217;d like the symposium to be a showcase for the excellent education practices that occur across BU and as a way of recognising the contributions you make. We&#8217;d like to nudge you to submit an abstract and take the opportunity to present so that BU colleagues, and colleagues from HEIs across the country, can benefit from your insights and experiences, that they might then implement your great work into their own education practice. Thank you in advance for considering this.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: left\" align=\"center\">Interested? We hope so! Please read on for how to submit an abstract.<\/p>\n<p class=\"x_MsoNormal\" style=\"text-align: center\"><b>Call for Contributions<\/b> for the annual <b>ANTF symposium 2027, at Bournemouth University!<\/b><\/p>\n<img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"size-medium wp-image-893 aligncenter\" src=\"https:\/\/microsites.bournemouth.ac.uk\/hems\/files\/2026\/11\/image-1-300x298.png\" alt=\"\" width=\"300\" height=\"298\" \/>\n<p class=\"x_MsoNormal\">The call is open to all National Teaching Fellows and aspiring National Teaching Fellows, CATE award winners, and aspiring CATE award winners.
