Join us online from 12 to 14 May 2026 for the UHR Annual Conference, once again hosted virtually.
Our annual conference is designed to provide exceptional value, ensuring that every HR colleague from our member universities can access high-quality, professional development.
Whether you are new to HR in Higher Education or a seasoned professional, this virtual format allows you to engage fully in the conference from the convenience of your own workspace, making it both accessible and cost-effective for busy HR teams.
With an exciting programme featuring headline speakers, breakout sessions and specialist workshops, #UHR26 will be an incredible CPD opportunity. You’ll hear from leading experts and practitioners, from both in and outside the sector, who will bring fresh insights into the key challenges and opportunities facing HR in Higher Education.
In addition, expert-led sessions will cover a wide range of topics, there will be ample opportunity for networking and peer-to-peer learning and HR teams from universities across the UK will also be sharing their experiences.
We look forward to welcoming you for three inspiring days of learning, collaboration and innovation.
The conference programme and tickets are not usually released until January however to enable institutions to spend their £500 CPD voucher on any event in our development programme we have made it possible to book your team ticket now.
In due course we will be looking for partner organisations to support our 2026 conference and reaching out to HEIs and organisations that may wish to present a workshop. If this is something of interest to you, please email the team at YourVision Events who can provide more information about the process.
