We’re going on the road… again!

Following the success of our first Roadshow events in 2025, we’re doing it again, so if you’re a marketing professional working within the further education sector, these events are for you.

Whether you’re looking to enhance your marketing skills, improve student recruitment strategies, or simply connect with peers, the CMN Roadshow offers something for everyone.

The CMN Roadshow is your chance to gain valuable insights, learn best practices, and connect with fellow marketing professionals without having to travel far from your region. Inspired by the success of our annual CMN conference, the Roadshow aims to reach those who may not always be able to attend the main conference, offering an accessible day for learning and networking.

Each Roadshow event is packed with a dynamic schedule of activities, including:

  • Keynote Speeches: Hear from leading industry experts on the latest trends and strategies in marketing for the education sector.
  • Interactive Workshops: Participate in hands-on sessions covering topics such as digital marketing, student recruitment, branding, and social media.
  • Networking Opportunities: Build valuable connections during lunch and networking sessions.
  • Exhibitors: discover innovative products and services from industry-leading suppliers.
