As you will see below we have a range of effective, useful workshops and networking sessions for you to choose from.
You will need to pre-book your workshop prior to the event. If you do not select any workshops in advance you will have to wait to view them after the event. Alternatively you could watch one of the pre-recorded seminars on the day. When your conference booking is confirmed you will receive an email giving you all of the workshop options so that you can book your place.
Don’t worry if you do not get the chance to attend all the workshops that you want, or if your first choice is full; you will be able to tailor the programme to your own needs and interests by accessing the workshops ‘On demand’ using the secure Conference website for 1 month after the event. You wont have the opportunity to take part in Q&A if you access them using the ‘On demand’ function.
