ACP Trainees Meeting 2010

E-mail Print PDF

This years trainees meeting was held at the City Inn (now Mint Hotel) in central Manchester. As usual it was a great opportunity for trainees from around the country to meet up for some useful education, as well as  socialising with colleagues and comparing notes on training at different centres. As usual the programme covered topics not always included in standard training courses. The value in networking with future consultant colleagues should not be underestimated.  You can download the programme here. Feedback from attendees, speakers and sponsors has been excellent and plans are now underway for the 2011 meeting to be held in the autumn.  Details of the date and venue will be posted here in due course.
