About

Dev8D is the major UK event in the year for developers in the education sector to learn from one another and ultimately create better, smarter technology for learning and research.

Dev8D can ultimately help you become a better programmer so you can go back to your institution having been developed, inspired, invigorated, challenged, better connected and having shared ideas with your colleagues in the UK and internationally. Most importantly you are armed with new skills and enthusiasm to help your institutions and organisations develop better, more efficient and well used systems and services.

Come Prepared

We want you to get expert training, explore, experiment, think out of the box, try new and innovative ideas, widen your professional and social network, and above all enjoy the experience. Come prepared to share your own skills, to learn from others and to get stuck into our exciting challenges. You might even find that you win some of our fantastic prizes!

What Happens at Dev8D?

Dev8D offers a structured programme of exceptional speakers and training sessions, together with cunningly placed activities and areas to encourage you to exchange ideas with other attendees and create, innovate and collaborate.

Get Stuck In!

The tutorials, workshops, lightning talks, projects and challenges delivered at Dev8D are run largely by your peers. People like you. Sometimes they are you!
 
Nearly all of the people at Dev8D give up their time for free because they believe in the spirit of the event and passionately believe in give something back to their colleagues. They are willing to share what they know and the mistakes they have made. They want to inspire and motivate you! How many sectors of work do you know like that?

Who should attend

Most of those attending Dev8D will be developers working within higher or further education institutions. However, we also welcome developers working in other sectors such as Museums, Libraries, computer science / related subject undergraduates and people who may have an interest in software development but who wouldn’t necessarily consider themselves to be developers.
