This article reflects on the International Block and Intensive Teaching Association (IBILTA) conference held in Melbourne, Australia, in July 2024. Perspectives are offered from two delegates who joined the conference from differing institutional and national contexts. One is a Teaching Scholar from Southern Cross University, Australia, and the other an Associate Pro Vice-Chancellor from De Montfort University, UK. We reflect on the value of attending the conference in person, some of the challenges, and offer thoughts on ‘where to next’.
