EARLI As the days begin to shorten and the temperatures are slowly dropping, EARLI is already looking forward to a busy summer schedule. With more than 20 SIG Conferences and a JURE Conference taking place all over Europe, the summer can't come quick enough! SIG Conferences 2016 The EARLI Special Interest Groups (SIGs) are more active than ever. During the summer of 2016, they will be organising over 20 different Conferences in 13 European countries. A wide variety of research topics will be explored, examined and discussed at some of Europe's finest universities and colleges. Currently, most SIGs have announced their first calls for papers. EARLI wishes to encourage everyone to get involved, and submit a proposal. Papers, posters and symposia proposals will be welcomed by one of our 27 Special Interest Groups. If you haven't made any plans yet for your summer vacation, make sure to have a look at the comprehensive SIG Conference Calendar, to be found on the EARLI website (www.earli.org)! JURE Conference 2016 EARLI is equally proud to announce its annual Junior Researchers (JURE) Conference, which will take place at the University of Helsinki, from the 4th until the 8th of July 2016. The university, which lies in the heart of Finland's capital city, is the oldest and biggest university of the country. It recently celebrated its 375th anniversary and continues to be marked as one of the top universities in the world. The Conference theme, “Education in a dynamic world: Facing the future”, will provide plenty of food for thought. As we live in a dynamic world that changes day by day, it is vital to acknowledge the many challenges education faces. The JURE 2016 Conference aims to enhance the field of education by raising questions about how we can make our education future-proof. As always, both Junior as Senior Researchers are invited to submit a proposal for the JURE Conference. All information can be found at www.earli-jure2016.org. 17th Biennial Conference in Tampere, Finland 2017 It is with great pleasure that EARLI announces its 17th Biennial Conference, which will take place in the beautiful city of Tampere, in the south of Finland (29th of August e 2nd of September 2017). The Conference theme, Education in the Crossroads of Economy and Politics, will serve as a lead through five days of presentations, discussions and talks. Surrounded by lakes and forests, Tampere will provide the perfect setting for fruitful and rigorous discussions on the latest educational topics.

campus “Maison des Sciences Humaines” in Belval, Luxembourg. We are looking forward to welcome you at this anniversary edition. EAPRIL is proud to host already its 10th Conference. In this Association News we are happy to give you a glimpse of the fascinating activities and new programme elements organised. Education & Learning: EAPRIL 2015 Conference As always, EAPRIL keeps on being as innovative as possible by updating its presentation formats each year. As our new Flipping the Session format was a success last year, this format will be also organised this year. The ‘flipping the session’ sessions integrate video presentations and generates more opportunities for in-depth discussion. New this year is the format ‘practice meets research’. This session is especially designed to give the floor to practitioners get who can present their case from practice, and benefit from a nice discussion with researchers and other practitioner(s- researchers). Also our Award has gained interest and will be awarded for the 4th time. Finally, the success of our school visits is also noteworthy. As a result, also in 2015, school visits will be organised in different schools with various educational levels in Luxembourg for everyone who is interested in the educational system of Luxembourg. Also the Ministry of Education of Luxembourg will provide an appealing introduction to provide us more contextual information about the education system and the teacher education in Luxembourg. We encourage you to take this chance to learn from an be inspired by practice and research colleagues. Register now to participate in the 10th edition of the EAPRIL Conference. EAPRIL's L&D event In 2014 EAPRIL started with the development of a L&D programme with a clear focus on learning and development in corporate organisations. A first kick-off event was organised during our 2014 Conference with interesting keynotes, the presentation of the results of our first European Learning Compass, a lot of interesting sessions and networking moments. In 2015 EAPRIL wants to take the next steps in building up this pillar. The EAPRIL 2015 Corporate Learning Event ‘Moving Corporate Learning from Good to Great’ on Monday November 23 will take place in Belval, Luxembourg and is focused at developing knowledge about organisational learning challenges in diverse Transformational Change Labs. Various representatives from international companies will lead such a lab, supported by a leading researcher form the corporate learning field.
