IFIP InterYIT, the global body for Young It Professionals, is partnering with the Global Learning Conference on Mobile Computing, to be held on 27th and 28th January 2016, in South India.

Organised by SSM College of Engineering, India and MyMobileUniversity, Malaysia, the conference seeks to develop and promote mobile learning infrastructure, applications, devices and content under the theme, “Transforming Education, Transforming Lives”.

InterYIT Chair, Yasas V. Abeywickrama said welcomed the opportunity to work alongside key international events to promote InterYIT and encourage young professionals to actively engage in developing their knowledge and skills.

“We organised the first InterYIT international Conference in October 2015 in South Korea and also engage with organisers of other events around the world to support them and increase our reach. We are happy to be able to work alongside the Indian organisers on this useful conference.”

The primary goal of the conference is to bring together education workers and stakeholders including teachers, trainers, technologists, researchers, course designers and doctoral students in the fields of new technologies, pedagogies and policies related to Open Educational Resources (OER) and Massive Open Online Courses (MOOCs) in order to share knowledge, approaches, strategies, models, solutions and applications in an educational context.
