Our programme of face-to-face and digital New consultants forums provide the opportunity to hear from local speakers on essential topics – from how to prepare a business case, medical leadership and survival tips for the new consultant.
CPD and format
All our forums are CPD accredited and have been programmed to fit into the life of the busy clinician. There are bite-size sessions at varying times of the day and week, as well as longer face-to-face meetings.
We hope these forums offer the opportunity to meet and share experiences with your peers, either face-to-face or online: as a result these events are not available to watch on demand.
