We are happy to announce that all speakers and workshops are in place for this year’s Annual Conference and what a fun-packed day it will be! We invite you to join us for a day of reconnecting with old friends, making new ones, exploring new ideas and experiencing the joy of sharing teaching tips and tricks that work for you!The title this year is “Innovative approaches to assessment”. Annie Altamirano will start us off with her engaging plenary on assessment and you can also catch up with her in session A at her workshop. The programme includes a keynote speaker in the morning and a range of 30-minute, 45-minute and 60-minute workshops throughout the day, leaving you lots of time to connect with your colleagues, grow at the exhibitor stands and thrive by feeding your hearts and minds during the workshops. Whatever your teaching background, you are sure to find interesting and challenging workshops to pique your curiosity. I would like to sincerely thank all members of the Events and Publications Teams and the Executive Committee for their physical and emotional support. Special thanks also go to Katie Hayoz who has been invaluable in every way. We look forward to seeing you at the Annual Conference and hope that you will be able to join us on Friday evening for an apéro and nibbles with our exhibitors and the ETAS committee from 6.30 p.m. to 8 p.m. Partners are welcome to join us at the apéro – the more the merrie
