The Complete List of Learning and Development (L&D) Exhibitions and Conferences

We noticed a gap in finding a single, reliable list of L&D Conferences and Exhibitions.

So we decided to put together the complete list of learning and development events. The list includes online and offline lists from around the world. 

If you are looking for an exhibition or conference to attend this year, then we’ve looked to include it.  There are some organisations that put on events all year like the Learning Network – check out the website for more details.

You might find that a URL doesn’t work or a date has changed – check the details before you move. Organisations change websites or the dates, but we’ve done our best to update the details. 

If you find a good event let us know and we’ll update the events list.

Whether you’re interested in learning technologies, corporate training, or talent development, the information is scattered. To solve this, we created this complete, resource of L&D Exhibitions and Conferences for you use. be aware that some of these events are not free.

What should I attend?
It is a good idea to ask colleagues, post on LinkedIn for recommendations or check for recommendations for people to have been to exhibitions and conferences.

Lot of the larger exhibitions also have a free seminar programme to you can combine working around the exhibition with checking out the seminar programme.

If you are checking out what to attend then carefully read the session plans. There are ‘influencers’ who will attend the conferences all year – are you going to be getting new information and knowledge? Think about who you want to see and perhaps you might even want to attend a conference in a different country or sector?

Check out our review of the Learning Leader Conference that Scott visited in Decemeber 2024 in US, after spending a couple of years only visiting conferences in the USK

This list helps you stay informed and ahead in the industry by gathering key exhibitions and conferences in one place.

If you not included then reach out and let us know and we’ll look to get your exhibition or conference involved?
