ASCILITE 2026 Draft Program is now available!Things are getting real! We’re excited to share the first draft of the ASCILITE 2026 conference program, giving you an early look at what’s in store in Brisbane this November. With a fantastic range of presentations, panels, Pecha Kuchas, posters and other sessions across the three days, there is plenty to start exploring as you plan your conference experience. View the draft program: https://2026conference.ascilite.org/program/ A small but important disclaimer: this is a very early draft of the program and it is highly likely that there will be changes as we continue to refine the schedule. Please check back regularly for the latest version. If you spot something that doesn’t look right or have a question about your presentation or the program, please get in touch via conference@ascilite.org and the team will be happy to help. Be a Buddy at ASCILITE 2026Coming to a conference where you don’t know many people can be daunting — and a friendly face can make all the difference. Our ASCILITE Conference Buddy Program connects experienced ASCILITE conference-goers with delegates who are new to the conference or would simply appreciate having someone to connect with. We’re particularly keen to hear from people willing to be a Buddy this year. It doesn’t require a big commitment — just being a welcoming point of contact, saying hello, perhaps meeting for a coffee, and helping someone feel part of the ASCILITE community. If you know your way around an ASCILITE conference and would be happy to help someone else find their feet, please consider putting your hand up to be a Buddy. Simply email conference@ascilite.org with the subject heading Conference Buddy Volunteer.
