Workshop Submissions:UKATA Conference 2027
What conversation, insight or piece of practice could you bring to the UKATA National Conference 2027?
We are now inviting workshop submissions for next year’s conference, taking place from 23-25 April 2027.

Our 2027 conference theme is Conversations That Matter: Making Meaning in a Changing World.
In a world shaped by uncertainty, complexity and rapid change, how do we make sense of ourselves, our relationships and the communities we belong to? Transactional Analysis offers rich perspectives for exploring meaning, fostering understanding and supporting change across individuals, groups, organisations and society.
We're looking for workshops that bring this theme to life from across all four fields of TA. We particularly welcome submissions from practitioners working in counselling, educational and organisational contexts.
Whether you're an experienced presenter or sharing your work for the first time, we encourage you to submit a proposal.
Presenter hours will count towards your CPD requirements, and successful applicants may be eligible for a conference ticket rebate.
Submission deadline: 31 August 2026
All applications will be reviewed by the UKATA Workshop Committee, with outcomes communicated in October.

We look forward to receiving your ideas and creating another engaging and thought-provoking conference programme together.
