The program can continue to grow only through the support of our members, so why not send us your thoughts on any of the following areas of interest to our committee: |
- Ideas for workshops or ways to improve the program.
- Nominating yourself or someone else you know who would be a good presenter.
- Offer your services on our committee.
- Let us know about any contacts in universities or private organisations who can help us to develop distance-learning modules.
