·        Workplace skill development – Workshops and seminars help you to develop the skills and knowledge to further your career and reach your potential.

 

·        Mentoring and support – Leaders in your clinical program and discipline provide mentoring, problem-solving and support.

Learning centres at each site provide access to electronic and print journals and other resources to support staff in their learning and research.

*       Celebrating excellence – Our annual awards in education excellence celebrate the contributions of staff to student and patient/family education.
