Current Services

Events

We currently run two half-day events (link to pictures) in the calendar year. This format is to minimise the disruption to members' working day whilst maximizing the opportunity for attendance at the event.

Forum members meet and network whilst they discuss relevant topics, develop relevant skills and listen to key note speakers. We held our first event on September 29th 2006 and our last event on May 14th 2007.

Watch this space for notification of our forthcoming events.

Events always have a positive relevant theme and are structured to enable members to take something of value from attending.

Internet

This part of the PATH National website is dedicated to the Forum. It is still undergoing development so your comments are welcome.

We are looking to develop a newsletter section in the future. Please start to send us articles of particular interest to you and your profession/specialism.

We want this site to be a proactive, enabling tool which allows the Forum and its members to continue the professional progression they started at PATH National.

For the future

In the future as the Forum matures, we will be able to post the research and development papers of members. We will conduct our own research to ensure activities remain both relevant and topical. Eventually there will be mini networks consisting of members in the same or similar discipline/specialism.
