itSMF UK provides a huge range of events for members (and some for non-members), from intensive masterclasses and ITSM introductions to SM forums, simulations, member meet-ups and of course our annual Conference & Awards.
For 2026 we’re delighted to announce a programme of 12 signature events, many of them in-person at exclusive venues around the UK, to help members schedule time around their preferred topics.
Some of these expand on our strong relationships with organisations such as PeopleCert, XLA Institute and Scopism; others explore important areas such as wellbeing in the workplace and AI in ITSM.
To make things even better, 11 of these events, ITSM26 being the exception, will all be FREE for members attend.
