52nd AONTAS Annual General Meeting (AGM) 2022

Date: 25th May 2022

Time: 10.00am-1.30pm

This year’s Annual General Meeting (AGM) will be held in person, in the Ashling Hotel, Dublin 8. This will be our first in-person event in over two years, and although we have engaged with members and learners through many online events, we look forward to re-engaging in person. The AGM will also be broadcast online, but to proactively engage in the meeting we encourage you to attend, in person, if possible.

This AGM will form part of the consultation process for the new AONTAS Strategic Plan and we will look at how we can strengthen the adult learning community as a collective voice for educational equality, in changing times. We will also have voting for elections to the AONTAS Board as well as the statutory business of our AGM - All voting will be complete in advance of the event.

For any AGM queries, please contact Barry Dolan, AONTAS Communications and Membership Officer: bdolan@aontas.com
