FAQ's

Learning Places Scotland is Scotland's leading learning environments event - a unique forum that brings the whole of Scotlands Learning Estate together to 'maximise opportunities across the learning estate'.  For many of our participants, it’s the only event of the year that brings together the whole community: from policy makers and designers to suppliers and educators.  It is also a key resource to gain valuable insight into upcoming policy and practical knowledge from experts in the sector.

With a focus on the funding, design, build, maintenance and management of schools, colleges and universities, the event featured a 2-day multi-streamed conference, an exhibition that showcased some of the most innovative solutions around and a glittering awards dinner that celebrated excellence in the sector.
