L&D Career Pathways: A Big Bloom Hackathon

Many of us discovered the joy of L&D through a simple, powerful spark: a passion for helping people learn, bringing out the best in others, and making a tangible difference to organisational success—no matter the sector.

That commitment to purpose is what unites our community. But whether you are an emerging practitioner laying your foundations or an experienced leader guiding high-level capability, navigating your own career progression isn't always straightforward.

AITD wants to help map out clear, intentional career pathways for practitioners at every stage—and we want to build that roadmap with you.

On Tuesday 22 September, AITD is partnering with Collective Intelligence and innovation specialists Big Bloom for The L&D Career Pathways Sprint: a high-energy, 3-hour online problem-solving experience.

What to Expect

This is not a traditional webinar or a slide presentation. There is no pre-work and no sitting on mute. You will work in small collaborative groups, guided by expert facilitators, to turn shared wisdom into practical frameworks.

In three fast-paced hours, you will:

  • Share Passion & Experience: Exchange insights with peers across different career stages, exploring how to build fulfilling, high-impact L&D careers.
  • Shape AITD’s Future Support: Co-design practical tools, frameworks, and initiatives that AITD can roll out to support practitioners from emerging to experienced levels.
  • Master Innovation Methods: Experience Design Thinking and Collective Intelligence frameworks live—skills you can immediately apply in your own organisation.
  • Connect with Purpose-Driven Peers: Collaborate closely with L&D professionals from across Australia who share your passion for learning and impact.
