A date for your diary

Across theworld, the Covid-19 pandemic has for the past year caused unprecedenteddisruption to health and care service provision and the education and trainingof health and care professionals. 

It has beena challenging time for educators, students, and practitioners. Lockdowns havedisrupted delivery of education programmes, practice placements and plannedstudent experiences. This has forced the shift to online and blended teachingto be rapidly advanced and all involved in professional  education have had to grapple with newtechnologies, rewriting course content and had to develop innovative strategiesin adapting programme delivery.

This Conference is about sharing experiences – How did you adapt?  what worked / what didn’t work? As we moveback into ‘normality’ and recovery, based on your experiences – what would yourestore and renew and why? What would you reconstruct differently or takeforward innovations established over the past year?

There willbe selected live sessions, pre-recorded presentations and live Q&A,interactive workshops with breakout sessions.

The detailed themes for this online conference andinstructions for submission of abstracts  will be published shortly. Watch this space!
