Your community. Your inspiration. Your celebration.
Join us for our biggest in-person member event of the year on Friday 7 November at AAT Connect.
We’ll be returning to our stylish London venue, The Brewery, for the ultimate one-day member experience covering what matters most to our community, designed by members for members.
It’s your day to shape. Choose sessions and activities that match your goals and interests. With talks on key topics and issues in the industry, 1-2-1 clinics for personalised advice, exhibition stands to explore and of course plenty of opportunities to meet other members.
The AAT Impact Awards
We’re also here to recognise and celebrate our members and their incredible achievements they’ve made throughout the year with the Impact Awards. This year, we have five brand new categories to honour even more of the AAT community. Could you be one of them?
What to expect
Are you an early bird? Drop in to a breakfast session to enjoy a coffee with a side of conversation and learning. There’ll be sessions for all our members, from Making Tax Digital for practice owners to sessions for new members who want to stay up to date with the latest industry developments.
Get expert advice throughout the day: With a flexible schedule, you can join a 1-2-1 clinic whenever suits you. You’ll be able to get personalised guidance on CVs, practice management and more.
Get the latest insights: Member-led panels will discuss the key topics in the industry and spotlight real stories. Keen to join the conversation and be part of the panel? Keep an eye out, as we’ll be releasing more information soon on how you can get involved.
Make meaningful connections: Catch up with familiar faces or get to know someone new, whether that's in the main exhibition area, in a breakout space or a quiet zone – however you socialise best.
Learn more about AAT’s future: Meet members of the AAT Members' Advisory Council (MAC) and find out how they’re helping shape AAT, and how your voice can be a part of that too.
Celebrate your community: Staying for the Impact Awards? We’ll end the day with a three-course meal and drinks as we celebrate our members’ achievements.
All this for just £59 – that’s your ticket to a full day of learning, connecting, and celebrating with your AAT community.
