Welcome to the 4th Applied Learning Conference -
Advancing Applied Learning and Competency Development in the Digital Age.
The ever-evolving digital landscape continues to shape the way we live, work and learn. It also creates new opportunities for both academia and industry to leverage technology to deliver meaningful and engaging learning. In this conference, we will discuss latest trends and learn about innovative approaches for advancing applied learning through technology.
The rapid pace of technological change and the increasing digitalisation of the workplace have also created a growing demand for individuals with different competencies. With a focus as well on competency-based learning, this conference will explore the strategies and best practices for designing curricula that prepare learners for the digital workforce.
We invite you to join us for a series of keynote speeches and interactive sessions and be engaged in thought-provoking conversations to gain valuable insights as we rethink learning in this new digital age.

The conference aims to achieve the following objectives:
