It's so expensive because its not aimed at people who work in pathology: The website says: Understanding the business of pathology All NHS services increasingly need to be run as businesses. Especially pathology services, where the future may well be as stand alone business units. This event will help you understand the business mechanics of pathology services and enhance your business skills. This conference is designed for asset strippers and sweat shop operators to evaluate whether they should borrow from their friendly neighbourhood vulture-capitalist to set up pathology sheds on the ring road... To them £465 is peanuts [much the same as they will be paying their staff if they get their own way. ************************************************************************************* Prof. Tim Reynolds, Queen's Hospital, Belvedere Rd, Burton-on-Trent, Staffordshire, DE13 0RB work tel: 01283 511511 ext. 4035 work fax: 01283 593064 work email: [log in to unmask] home email: [log in to unmask] ************************************************************************************** IMPORTANT: This email is intended for the use of the individual addressee(s)named above and may contain information that is confidential privileged or unsuitable for overly sensitive persons with low self-esteem, no sense of humour or irrational religious beliefs [if you want to believe in fairy stories and hug pixies that's up to you].
