Had a fantastic time at @ContentEdLive 2024 in Liverpool, networking with and learning from so many smart people in the #highereducation sector. Plus had the honour of presenting a keynote on #userexperience and #strategy, which I've now blogged: https://t.co/CqptleMlQD

We’ve got some wonderful traditional performers at this year’s Dunbar Music Festival #DMF2024 and opportunities for you to get involved:
- SKELPT ceilidh.
- Barry Stalker and friends open session.
- Suzanne Butler: modern folk sounds
- Andrew Gordon live from @BelhavenBrews

Really enjoyed this session, slides well worth a look if #servicedesign is your thing. #campdigital

[Neil Allison @usabilityed]

Loved @rufflemuffin ‘s workshop at #campdigital today. Perfect way to close off a day opened by @LouDowne ‘s #servicedesign talk. Where is your org on this spectrum?

[Neil Allison @usabilityed]

Great principles with resonance across many communities and groups. So much food for thought from @julesequity #campdigital

[Neil Allison @usabilityed]

Listening to a great panel discussion on inclusive design and accessibility. Excellent idea for a project KPI: how many changes were made as a result of user insight?

[Neil Allison @usabilityed]

Great turnout for #CampDigital. Looking forward to some great sessions on #servicedesign #Accessibility and #sustainable practices.

[Neil Allison @usabilityed]

@rufflemuffin @Nexer_Digital In Manchester just for this. Looking forward to it!

@rufflemuffin @theschoolofgood @SDNetwork @LouDowne I’ve been saying the same for years at the University of Edinburgh but I fear I’ve been over optimistic with my 60/40 split 😆

I shall update and follow your lead!

[Neil Allison @usabilityed]

Proud to be once again supporting our local charity, bringing people to our town, and the community together, through live music. Save the date for a cracking weekend at the seaside!

Loving the poster design for #DunbarMusicFestival 2024 😍

Watch out for them going up around town soon. T-shirts to follow!

Had a great time hosting, co-organising and attending the second @UKEduCamp #unconference. Members of our team reflect on what they got out of the day and why they'd recommend attending to other colleagues in #digital roles in #highereducation: https://t.co/9HybwO4H8f
