Interactive Zoom calls are held at least 4 times a year usually at 9 am GMT for 1 hour. We are hoping for an ever-increasing number of colleagues, especially trainees globally, to join these calls, giving their opinions, networking and sharing experiences. We now provide certificates for attendees and speakers to add to their portfolios for CPD.
Do you have a case study that you would like to discuss on a future call? Please email the UKKA secretariat for further information and dates of future calls.
