AI in Education – Shaping Tasmania’s Future
Artificial intelligence is transforming education – and now it’s Tasmania’s turn to lead the conversation. Join us on 12th May 2026 at the Hotel Grand Chancellor Hobart for a full-day event focused on how AI can support and strengthen learning across the state.
Designed for Tasmanian educators, school leaders, researchers, and policymakers, this conference offers a space to explore practical applications of AI, share local insights, and engage with national thought leaders. From personalised learning and smart classroom tools to ethical frameworks and regional implementation, we’ll dive into what AI means for Tasmanian schools and communities.
Whether you’re just beginning your AI journey or already driving innovation, this is your opportunity to connect, learn, and shape the future of education in Tasmania.
Register your interest today to access early bird pricing and be the first to receive the full agenda.
