SAIL Showcase Webinar – January 2026

This month, SAIL Databank’s bimonthly Showcase Webinar Series welcomed a group of guest speakers to discuss the theme “Driving learning and improvements around education and additional learning needs through linked data research“. Our speakers delivered insightful and thought-provoking discussions on this topic.

This webinar is open to all SAIL Databank users and anyone interested in hearing further information on the theme and wider SAIL updates.

Each Showcase webinar focuses on a different research and intelligence theme. If you would like the opportunity to present or would like to make a request/suggestion for future themes, please contact:
