Start the day with a coffee and a chat with other new members, before the buzz of the day begins. Get familiar with the space and find out what to expect from your first AAT Connect.

Fancy a coffee with a side of expert practice management advice? Sage will be on hand to show you the latest tools they have in their arsenal to make your life easier.

More information coming soon.

Discover products and services designed to make your day to day that little bit easier. Catch up with familiar faces or, if it’s your first Connect, meet new people and start making connections.

Joined one of our online Bookkeepers' catch ups, or always wanted to? Now’s your chance and we’re taking it offline.

Meet members who understand the challenges you face, hear how they overcome them and build connections with people who’ve been where you are. Because sometimes, you just need to talk to someone who gets it.

Calling all practice owners… This is your chance to meet the people who really understand what it takes to run a practice.

Going it alone isn’t always easy, and good advice can be hard to come by. Here, you’ll find a room full of AAT practice owners facing the same decisions, challenges and opportunities as you.

Working in the public sector, charity or non-profit space? This one’s for you.

Come together with other AAT members who understand the opportunities and challenges that come with working in these sectors. A space to chat and share what’s on your mind with people who have something in common with you.

Meet other AAT members working across industry and start building your network.

This is your opportunity to hear from and learn from the experiences of members who have been where you are and may already be where you want to be.

Let’s talk AI. It’s the hottest topic around – it’s practically impossible to miss, but how can you actually use it to make your working day easier?

Discover how we’re already putting AI to work, to tackle bigger business challenges and to take care of those everyday tasks that eat into your time. You can expect real examples, lessons learnt and practical ideas you can take away and try for yourself.

Finding great people is one thing. Keeping them is another.

We’ll discuss how to attract great talent and help them grow, all while creating workplaces they want to stay in. We’ll also cover what employees are looking for now and what finance teams can do to build a strong workforce for the future.
 

More opportunities to learn, connect and progress are coming soon.

Ever held back from speaking up, put off going for an opportunity or wondered whether you’re ready for the next step? You’re not the only one.

Our panel will get into the confidence gap and how it can show up throughout your career. They’ll share their own experiences, what they’ve learnt and practical ways to quieten the self-doubt and back yourself when it matters.

There’s no one right way to build a career. Maybe you’re chasing progression, want more flexibility or a better balance.

The AAT panel will discuss how they made their careers work for them, from changing direction to taking new opportunities and making choices that fit their priorities. You’ll leave the sessions thinking less about what your career should look like and more about what you actually want from it.

After a morning at AAT Connect, continue the conversations over our networking reception before sitting down for a three course lunch and for the AAT Impact Awards as we celebrate the people making a difference across the profession.
