Speaking & Events

I speak and facilitate workshops on microcredentials, digital badges, skills literacy, open recognition, stackability, learner pathways and the future of learning.

My sessions are designed to be practical, engaging and grounded in real implementation experience. I am particularly interested in helping audiences move beyond buzzwords and into the design choices, governance models and evidence practices that make recognition work.

Badge Summit - July 2026

Speaking engagement

At Badge Summit 2026, I’ll be supporting the Badge Sandpit experience through Pack Your Badges, a set of playful, self-paced activities designed to help participants explore badges, wallets, skills tools and digital recognition before and during the summit.

I’ll also be running a hands-on workshop on badge design, where participants will critique examples, unpack what makes a badge meaningful and trustworthy, and begin shaping their own badge ideas.

Across both activities, participants can earn, claim, explore and share badges while testing real tools and building confidence with digital credentials.

My eQuals Connect - August 2026

Speaking engagement

I’ll be speaking on skills literacy, visibility and the role of digital credentials in helping learners communicate what they know and can do.

The session will explore why digital records and credentials need to be more than static documents. They should help learners tell a stronger, clearer and more evidence-rich skills story.

ePIC APAC 2026, Melbourne

Organising committee member

I am part of the organising committee for the inaugural ePIC APAC Summit, focused on unlocking human potential and recognising learning wherever it happens.

The summit brings together people working across education, industry, government, community and recognition systems to explore how open recognition and microcredentials can support lifelong and life-wide learning.

Ready to make learning and skills more visible?

Microcredentials, badges and skills recognition can get messy quickly. I can help you cut through the noise, make sense of the options and design something that people can actually use.
