WHAT'S HAPPENING - [view previous events]
|
MedComms Networking has evolved from what was largely UK-based activity but now embraces a global community of medical communications specialists, and we welcome participation by anyone working in or around MedComms and the global Pharma industry, anywhere in the world. I am particularly keen to see the development of activities led by other individuals and specifically based in other regions so if you would like to act as a local organiser for - or you would like to provide funding for - such events please contact me directly.
I'm always happy to chat and all feedback is welcome, so give me a shout anytime or please post your thoughts to the MedComms Networking Linkedin group for discussion.
Scroll down to see details of activities that are planned for the coming months.
Meantime, you can see reports of all the previous meetings here.
Cheers

WEEKLY #MEDCOMMS WEBINAR
Continuous Professional Development in Medcomms - what, who, how?
Venue: Global
Date: 12.00 midday-13.00 UK time, Wednesday 11 October 2023
Medcomms is a fast-paced industry, that's why it's imperative that medcomms professionals recognise the importance of CPD. CPD is a fundamental component of any profession to help maintain standards for the sector and for individuals to apply focus to their own career development. There has been a lot of focus on CPD for entry-level talent within medcomms over recent years, but what are we doing for our experienced talent? In this session, we'll discuss the importance of CPD within medcomms and the work being done by the Healthcare Communications Association (HCA) to encourage a focus on CPD throughout career lifecycles. We'll also hear how the team at IPG Health Medical Communications is providing CPD opportunities for experienced talent through Northstar. On our panel we will have Mike Dixon (HCA), Rebecca Douglas (IPG Health) and Caroline Smith (IPG Health). And we answer questions from the audience.
