National Conference & Showcase for Fellowships & Student Champions
The N-TUTORR programme hosted the National Conference & Showcase for Fellowships & Student Champions on 17th April 2024 in the Hogan Suite at Croke Park, and online. This event showcased at a national and international level the outcomes of the 130 Fellowship Staff/Student Projects and the benefits of the Student Champion scheme to students and partner institutions.
The event included keynote addresses from Prof. Liz Thomas and Dr Katriona O’Sullivan, but the real stars of the event were the N-TUTORR fellows and champions who were invited to contribute to the event in a variety of formats including Lightning Talks, Interactive Projects and Digital Poster displays.

The conference was supported by the N-TUTORR National Programme, which is funded by the EU and overseen by the HEA. The purpose of the programme is to utilize the national scale and scope of the sector to deliver a best-practice suite of initiatives and opportunities for the learner, for staff development and supported by necessary enabling technologies.
The Irish Times published a 4 page supplement, detailing how N-TUTORR has helped transform the student learning experience across the emerging higher education sector, showcasing achievements to-date and our vision for the future.
