The seminar programme at Tes SEND Show North is CPD-certified. All visitors who attend a seminar will be emailed their certificate in the weeks after the show. It is vital that your badge is scanned as you enter the seminar room so that a record is kept of your attendance and we can issue your certificate.

Each seminar on the programme has a reference to what 'Level/s' it is relevant to. The definition of the Level/s is as follows:

Level 1: seminars for people who are new to SEND or have limited knowledge of this topic
Level 2: seminars for people who have some knowledge or experience of working with SEND/this topic
Level 3: seminars for people who have significant knowledge or experience of working with SEND/this topic

Here at MA Exhibitions (organisers of the Tes SEND Show North), we have recently become aware of a series of fraudulent emails to speakers and exhibitors from companies claiming to be officially partnered with the show, offering marketing services, access to the show's data, claiming to make official announcements about the status of the show and/or hotel reservation services. We are not in any way affiliated with these companies and advise you to ignore their emails and avoid clicking on any links contained within them. Your security is important to us, so if you're unsure whether or not an email you have received is fraudulent, please get in touch and we'd be happy to verify it for you. We would also like to reassure you that we do not release, sell or share any data related to the Tes SEND Show North with any outside parties.  Find out more here.
