Welcome to the Surpass Conference

The Surpass Conference is an annual gathering for members of the innovative Surpass Community.

The conference is a great opportunity to hear about key topics in assessment, connect with like-minded assessment professionals, share ideas and experiences, and help each other make the most of Surpass’ assessment technology and services. Alongside inspiring keynote speakers and insights from the Surpass Community, attendees will also help shape the roadmap of Surpass, and discuss how we can collectively promote best practices and influence the future of assessment on a global scale.

2025 was a virtual conference, across three days – allowing more people to attend and contribute from across the world for free.
