Dear IPA members 

This is an Invitation to the 2nd International Police Education Conference October 2020 - online 

The joint venture is supported by VP Martin Turner VP Professional and VP Sean Hannigan VP Culture and Comms 

We are jointly funding 20 places 

If interested please e mail Martin Turner vpturner@ipa-uk.org 

The conference is run in conjunction with IBZ Gimborn, the London Policing College and the British Council.

The conference is designed for police practitioners, researchers, and educators to exchange best practice and review learning.

The conference will focus on the outcome resulting from a series of workshops held during October 2020, which will engage police officers, staff, educators, and researchers from across the world and draw on their experiences and learning. 

These workshops will produce a series of papers considering key operational, organisational and educational impacts. Participants in the conference are strongly encouraged to take an active part in these workshops to ensure a wide range of perspectives in each session. 

There are six online workshops which will be delivered from 09.00 – 10.30 am BST:
