Upcoming Specialist Spotlight Sessions
To complement each unit you have the opportunity to join an hour-long online discussion, often featuring the specialists involved in developing the units. It’s a chance to contextualise the learning, share experiences and learn from colleagues from across the country.
Due to the interactive nature of these sessions, recordings will not be available after the event, so book now as places are limited!
