The Third Space Slowposium kicks off in just over two weeks (Fri Nov 15 - Sat Nov 30), followed immediately by the Third Space Symposium (Sun Dec 1). Both of these events are absolutely packed, with 50+ sessions/activities in the Slowposium and 20 in the Symposium. We’d like to thank everyone involved for your enthusiasm.

The program for the Sunday Symposium, with full session timings, is nearly finalised and will be made available on that page imminently.
It’s time to register
The online Slowposium (Fri 15 - Sat 30 Nov) is completely free and will run primarily in our Moodle instance. Some live sessions will be held in Zoom and some external tools will also be used but links to all of these are in Moodl). If you have not already signed up for this, please do so as soon as possible to allow our hard working volunteers time to create accounts for you.
The in-person Symposium (Sun 1 Dec - 9am - 4.30pm) will be held in the Arts West building at the University of Melbourne and includes morning/afternoon tea and lunch from Black Truffle catering. (*Truffles not included). This event will not be streamed or recorded. Registration for this event costs $56.
Registration for the in-person Symposium must close on Fri 15th Nov for catering purposes.
If you plan to attend both events, you need to register for them separately.
Thanks to our kind sponsors ATEM (the Association for Tertiary Education Management), we are also pleased to announce that we have two prizes for attendees at the in-person Symposium of a $500 gift voucher each which can be used for ATEM services and professional development.
We know that things are challenging right now for many of our colleagues in the third space and it is our hope that these two events will offer opportunities to celebrate the vital contributions that we all make, to expand understanding of the work we do, and to strengthen the third space community of practitioners.
Hope to see you soon,
Colin Simpson
