The Demystifying the JLDHE Publication Journey webinar is an upcoming professional learning event designed for individuals working in learning development and higher education who want to better understand the process of academic publication. Scheduled for 29 July 2026 from 11:00 to 12:00 BST, the online event offers an accessible opportunity to explore how ideas, professional experiences, research findings and learning development practices can be shaped into scholarly publications. Academic writing and publishing can sometimes appear complicated, particularly for professionals who have extensive practical experience but limited experience with journal submissions. The publication process can involve developing an idea, understanding a journal’s scope, preparing a manuscript, responding to feedback and navigating revisions. This event is intended to help make that journey clearer and more approachable for members of the learning development community. Organised by the Association for Learning Development in Higher Education, the webinar reflects the organisation’s wider role in supporting professional development, research, collaboration and knowledge exchange across the higher education sector. ALDinHE provides opportunities for learning developers to share ideas, access resources, engage with communities and contribute to the development of the profession. Understanding the Purpose of the JLDHE Publication Journey The Journal of Learning Development in Higher Education, commonly associated with the JLDHE, provides an important scholarly platform for conversations connected to learning development and higher education practice. For many professionals, publishing can provide a way to share insights beyond their own institution and contribute to wider discussions about teaching, academic skills, student learning and professional practice. The webinar is particularly relevant to those who have an idea for an article but are uncertain about the next step. A professional may have developed an innovative teaching approach, completed a research project, evaluated a learning intervention or reflected on a significant development in their practice. However, transforming that experience into a structured scholarly contribution can require guidance. This event can help participants understand how to move from an initial idea towards a potential publication. Rather than viewing academic publishing as a process reserved only for experienced researchers, the session can encourage learning development professionals to recognise the scholarly value of their own work and experiences. Supporting Learning Developers Through Scholarly Writing Learning developers work across a wide range of areas, including academic literacy, study skills, assessment support, student transition, digital learning, inclusive education and academic development. Their day-to-day practice often produces valuable observations and insights that can contribute to wider professional knowledge. However, busy workloads can make it difficult to find time for academic writing. Many professionals may also be unsure whether their ideas are suitable for publication or how to position a practical experience within an academic discussion. A focused webinar can help address these concerns by explaining the publication journey in a clear and accessible way. The session may be especially useful for early-career learning developers, practitioners beginning to explore research and colleagues who are considering submitting their first article. It can also benefit experienced professionals who want to refine their approach to publication or better understand current expectations in scholarly communication. From Professional Experience to a Publishable Academic Contribution One of the most important aspects of academic publishing is recognising that valuable research and scholarship can begin with a question arising from professional practice. A learning developer might notice a recurring challenge among students, evaluate a new teaching method or identify an emerging issue affecting academic skills provision. The next step is to explore how that observation can be developed into a focused argument. A strong publication generally requires clarity about the central issue, the evidence supporting the discussion and the contribution the article intends to make. Understanding this progression can help writers move from a broad idea to a manageable and meaningful article. The JLDHE publication journey may therefore be useful for professionals who have accumulated notes, project findings, teaching reflections or research material but have not yet converted those materials into a submission. By understanding the stages involved, participants can approach writing with greater confidence and direction. Why Publication Matters Across Higher Education Academic publishing contributes to the sharing of knowledge across institutions and professional communities. When learning development professionals publish their findings and experiences, their work can help colleagues understand new approaches, identify effective practices and reflect on challenges affecting students and universities. Publication can also contribute to professional recognition. Sharing scholarly work demonstrates a commitment to inquiry, reflection and the development of the profession. For learning developers, this can be particularly valuable because the field continues to evolve in response to changing student needs, new technologies, evolving approaches to assessment and broader developments in higher education. ALDinHE’s wider activities include supporting research, professional development, communities of practice and the Journal of Learning Development in Higher Education, making scholarly communication an important part of its professional community. A Useful Opportunity for New and Experienced Writers The webinar can appeal to a broad audience. New writers may benefit from understanding what happens before and after a manuscript is submitted. Those with previous publication experience may gain useful perspectives on improving their approach or developing future ideas. For participants who have never submitted an article, the event can help remove some of the uncertainty surrounding academic publishing. Questions about journal suitability, article structure, peer review and revision are common, and learning more about the overall process can make future writing projects feel more manageable. The online format also makes the event accessible to participants across the United Kingdom and beyond. Attendees can take part without travelling to a physical venue, making it convenient for university staff and professionals with demanding schedules. Connecting Publication With Professional Development Scholarly writing can be an important part of continuing professional development. It encourages professionals to examine their practice, engage with evidence and communicate ideas to a wider audience. The process can also encourage collaboration between colleagues from different institutions. An event focused on the JLDHE publication journey may help participants consider how their professional interests connect with broader conversations in learning development. A single idea can potentially develop into a research question, a collaborative project, a reflective article or a contribution to a wider scholarly discussion. The event may also encourage attendees to think about the role of publication in their own professional journey. Whether their goal is to share practice, contribute to research or develop a stronger academic profile, understanding the publishing process can be a valuable first step. Building Confidence Through Knowledge Sharing One of the most important benefits of professional events is the opportunity to learn from the experiences of others. Publishing can sometimes feel like an individual activity, but the wider academic community provides opportunities for collaboration, feedback and support. Webinars such as this can help create a more supportive environment by encouraging participants to discuss questions about writing and publishing. Learning developers can gain confidence by understanding that publication is often a process of development rather than a single perfect submission. The event is also consistent with ALDinHE’s broader aim of encouraging knowledge sharing and professional connections across learning development communities. Its events programme includes webinars, communities of practice, professional development sessions and other opportunities for colleagues to exchange ideas. Who Should Attend This ALDinHE Webinar? The event is particularly relevant to learning developers and higher education professionals who are interested in academic writing and scholarly publication. It may also be valuable for academic skills tutors, educational researchers, teaching and learning professionals and university staff who are developing research ideas. Professionals who have recently completed a project or evaluation may find the session useful when considering how to share their findings. Similarly, colleagues who have written conference papers, internal reports or reflective pieces may be able to explore how those materials could be developed further. The event can also be relevant to individuals who want to understand more about the role of the JLDHE and the contribution it makes to learning development scholarship. By attending, participants can gain a clearer understanding of how publication can support both individual professional development and the wider higher education community. Preparing for the Event Participants may benefit from thinking about their own writing or publication questions before attending. For example, they might consider whether they have a research idea, a teaching innovation, a project evaluation or a professional experience that could be developed into a scholarly contribution. Having a specific idea in mind can make the webinar more practical. Participants can compare their own situation with the publication journey discussed during the session and identify the next steps they may need to take. It may also be useful to prepare questions about article development, journal publishing, peer review and scholarly writing. A focused approach can help attendees make the most of the one-hour online session. A Valuable Event for the Learning Development Community The Demystifying the JLDHE Publication Journey webinar provides a timely opportunity for professionals to explore academic publishing in a supportive higher education context. By focusing on the journey from an initial idea to a potential publication, the event can help make scholarly writing more understandable and accessible. For learning developers, publication offers a way to contribute to professional conversations, share evidence-informed practice and help shape the future of learning development. The webinar can therefore serve as a useful starting point for individuals who want to develop their writing, explore research opportunities or understand more about publishing within their field. Taking place online on 29 July 2026, the event offers an accessible opportunity for professionals to connect with current discussions around learning development scholarship. Those interested in academic writing, professional inquiry and higher education research should consider checking the official ALDinHE event information and registration requirements before attending.
