Varying in duration from 1 to 5 days, these courses contain essential, classroom taught, academic subjects in addition to a strong clinical element using demonstration patients. Many are multidisciplinary and some are designed for selected professions only. Please read the individual course descriptions carefully before submitting your Short Course Registration Form 2009/10 in order to ensure that the course of interest to you is appropriate to your professional background.
