Last Chance to Shape The Higher Education Technology Agenda in 2025

We have reopened abstract submissions for THETA 2025 for a brief period. Whether you've just completed a project, want to showcase novel educational technology, or have compelling research findings, this is your moment to shine on an international stage.

You have just one week to submit your proposals before submissions close on Thursday, 17th April, just ahead of the Easter long weekend. This is your last opportunity to contribute to our diverse and dynamic program.

THETA serves as an exciting forum to showcase ideas, research and best practice, gain new ways of thinking, and collaborate with like-minded contemporaries. 

THETA consistently features a line-up of visionary speakers and thought-provoking presentations that paint the big picture on emerging trends and the future landscape in the intelligent use of information technology in higher education and research.

Winds of Change Sub-themes

The dawn of AI, cybersecurity threats and digital learning are signals of our modern times, but their arrival is nothing new. Higher education has always been confronted by advances in technology, legislation, and evolving ways of student learning – it’s just that now, their impact is more immediate. 

If change is our sector’s only constant, THETA 2025 asks how we can better prepare for, and embrace it with our 2025 theme, ‘Winds of Change’.
