From March 18 to 20, Valladolid became the gathering place for the Moodle community in Spain. And this year, at 3ipunt, we didn’t just attend—we participated as Platinum sponsors, reaffirming our commitment to the e-learning ecosystem and the evolution of Moodle.
Organized by the University of Valladolid, which boasts more than eight centuries of history, MoodleMoot Spain 2026 was much more than just an event: it was a space for sharing, discussing, and, above all, shaping the future of digital education.
More than 200 attendees, 8 workshops, 35 talks, 3 keynote speeches… and many hours of networking. But if anything defines this year’s event, it’s not the numbers, but the atmosphere: reunions, new ideas, conversations that start with a casual chat and end up as real projects. Because Moodle isn’t just a platform. It’s a community that continues to evolve thanks to those who build it day by day.
Here’s how we experienced MoodleMoot Spain: 6 sessions to rethink Moodle
This year, we presented six sessions centered around a common theme: moving away from using Moodle “as usual” and starting to unlock its full potential, both technically and pedagogically.
When competencies go beyond theory
One of the biggest challenges in university settings is not defining competencies, but putting them into practice. In this workshop, we’ll work on a real-world case study to integrate them into Moodle, aligning them with activities, assessment, and learning outcomes. The focus: moving from a conceptual model to actual implementation.
Accessibility without compromising on design
There is still a perception that accessibility and design are separate. The reality is quite the opposite.
In this session, we’ll show you how to apply UX/UI best practices to themes, plugins, and course formats to enhance the user experience for everyone without compromising visual quality.
Moodle Composed: Installing and managing Moodle with Composer
Traditional Moodle management is starting to fall short in demanding environments. Here, we explore how Composer enables more controlled, reproducible, and maintainable installations, bringing Moodle in line with modern development standards.
AI Applied to Moodle Systems: early detection of anomalous behavior
Problems in Moodle don’t usually arise suddenly: they give off warning signs. We’ll explore how to identify abnormal patterns (load, traffic, processes) before they impact performance and how this changes the way we approach system architecture.
How to use different AI technologies to automate your QA
The growth of the Moodle ecosystem calls for a rethink of how we approach testing. In this session, we’ll show you how to transition from a manual approach to an AI-driven model capable of adapting to complex environments without compromising control or quality.
What makes Workplace so special?
Together with Emilio Lozano (Moodle HQ), we explored what lies behind Moodle Workplace: its origins, its product decisions, and where it’s headed. A must-see talk for understanding the role of Workplace in corporate environments.
The Formometer: measuring learning maturity
We invite attendees to try the Formometer, a test designed to measure the maturity level of training within an organization.
The result?
- A huge turnout
- Very interesting conversations
- And plenty of people eager to do it again

Looking ahead to 2027
MoodleMoot Spain 2026 has once again demonstrated an important point: e-learning doesn’t advance solely because of technology, but because of the community that drives it.
Ideas, discussions, lessons learned… but also a shared sense that this isn’t the end of the story.
The next edition is already underway. See you in Zaragoza!
