WORKSHOPS and BRIEFING SESSIONS
This year the group sessions will comprise nine workshops
and nine briefing sessions running concurrently on Monday
afternoon, and repeated on Tuesday morning and again on
Tuesday afternoon. Delegates can attend a different workshop
or briefing session at each of these three times and are
requested to indicate their preferences on the delegate booking
form. As the workshops will be generally practical and
participative in nature, attendance will be limited to 20. Briefing
sessions will be more akin to lectures, allowing larger numbers
to be accommodated, although delegates will still have the
opportunity for questions and discussion.
