Pre-Conference Events

Our Pre-Conference Events (PCEs), organised by our Special Interest Groups (SIGs), are being held on Monday 15 March 2021.

The events allow you to explore a particular subject area in more depth, network with colleagues from around the world and to continue your professional development. Each PCE runs for the full day and it is only possible to register for one PCE. All PCE delegates will receive a certificate of attendance.
