At this year's Spring Conference, we will be joined by Professor Dame Jessica Corner who will be sharing some of the recommendations coming out of the clinical academic workforce task and finish group and thinking about how we can best support clinical academics. Following the changes to the NMC's education quality assurance process, Quality Assurance Agency's Rob Stroud will be talking us through the latest updates on the work. We'll also be having a discussion with NHS England on the educator survey members have been contributing to, helping to get a better picture of the state of the healthcare educator workforce. We’ll be ensuring that there’s plenty of discussion time incorporated into the programme and opportunity for networking throughout the day. For further information on our planned sessions, please see the programme.

Thank you to our conference partners Sentira XR who will also be joining us in our networking space on the day.
