RDAQ Pre Conference Workshops
Musculoskeletal Workshop
RDAQ will be running a one day pre conference Musculoskeletal Workshop on Friday 11th June. This is in addition to the pre-conference workshops being provided by Health Workforce Queensland. The cost to attend the Musculoskeletal workshop is $220 inc GST for conference delegates and $440 inc GST for non-conference delegates.
Aviation Workshop
RDAQ 2010 would like to invite all DAMEs to the first RDAQ Aviation Workshop which will be held on Friday 11 June 2010 at the Mackay Entertainment and Convention Centre. This workshop forms a part of the innovative pre RDAQ 2010 educational program.
Many rural DAMEs find it difficult to access educational updating in Aviation Medicine and because this year’s annual conference is in such an accessible and lovely location we have put together an enjoyable aviation workshop program that will allow you to meet up with urban colleagues and some excellent speakers including Air Commodore (AIRCDRE) Tracy Smart, one of the RDAQ 2010 keynote speakers.
The workshop registration fee is $440 (inc GST) which includes morning and afternoon tea, lunch and a workshop manual. To register please go to the RDAQ 2010 registration site or download the RDAQ 2010 Regsitration Brochure. If you have any questions or require more information on the Aviation Workshop please email smith@healthworkforce.com.au.
