Thanks to the incredible support of our Headline Sponsor, Ingeus, the award-winning IEP Basecamp returns on 2 October 2025 at The Lowry, Salford Quays, Manchester.
Fresh from winning Best New Event at the 2024 Association Success Awards, Basecamp is the only conference of its kind for the UK employability sector—created by employability professionals, for employability professionals. It’s where ideas are shared, skills are built, and the future of our profession takes shape.
This year’s theme, From Insight to Impact, will shape a day packed with:
- Tackling complex needs with confidence – breaking down stigma and building practical solutions.
- Leading through coaching – boosting team performance and workplace culture.
- Global perspectives, local impact – applying international insights to your day-to-day role.
- Employer engagement in action – forging stronger pathways into work.
- AI in employability – practical ways technology can enhance delivery.
We’ll be revealing the full speaker line-up soon, but we’re already thrilled to confirm that the one and only Mr Dan Howard FIEP from Lifetime Training will return as compère, bringing his trademark je ne sais quoi to the proceedings.
Huge thanks also to our “Human Fuel” sponsor, The Digital College, and our Drinks Reception sponsor, Whitehead Ross Education, for powering this year’s event.
Employers across the sector are already allocating spaces for their teams—recognising Basecamp as a chance to reward, inspire, and upskill their people. Watch this space for more announcements and get ready for another unforgettable day of learning, sharing, and connection.
