The Children & Young Persons Advisory Committee are delighted to announce our 2025 Knowledge Sharing Webinar Series.
Reflecting contemporary practice issues the diverse range of topics will be relevant to both new and experienced occupational therapists working in hospital, school and community settings with children and youth.
In response to the challenges for colleagues with scheduled daytime appointments, this year, 6 live one-hour webinars will be hosted on the first Thursday of the month, at the new evening time of 6.p.m.
We hope as always that this series provides affordable, accessible and useful evidence-informed and occupation-based CPD opportunities. We also hope that by sharing expertise, innovative practices and new policies and guidelines the series continues to strengthen our community.
Please share widely and support colleagues to register and let us know if this new time sparked any creative get togethers.
Looking forward to seeing you all in February.
