Frequently asked questions
What is the cost to attend?
The event is free, but you will need to book your space on the sessions that you want to attend.
Who is this event for?
If you are a leader or manager, business owner, team member, board member or learning professional, or if you just love learning, this event is for you!
How does the event work - do I need to stay for the whole afternoon?
We’d love for you to join us for the whole experience, but it’s totally up to you.
There will be two spaces available throughout the afternoon:

Important: To help us manage space and keep everyone comfortable and safe, we ask that you book a seat for each talk you plan to attend. This lets us make sure there’s enough room for everyone, and avoids overcrowding in the main space. You’ll find these options when you register.
Why do I have to book - can't I just turn up?
As much as we would love to have everyone be able to attend, the rooms will only hold a limited group of people at a time, so spaces are limited. Booking the sessions you plan on attending is also essential to ensure you have an actual seat for the session.
To help us manage numbers and in the interest of equity, spaces are limited to 2 people per business / organisation.
If you turn up on the day, we will do our best to accommodate you if we can, but we can't guarantee we will have room. If you are already at the event and you want to join a PowerTalk that you haven't booked, we will be happy to offer you any seats that are unoccupied once the talk is about to start.
Remember, booking allows us to keep everyone safe and comfortable, and also allows us to properly cater for the event and make sure we have enough activities and resources for everyone. This will make the event more pleasant for everyone.

We will have a selection of hot and cold drinks available all afternoon, along with some sweet treats.
