Event Details

NSW-ACT section prides itself in providing lively, dynamic events that will surely leave a memorable impression on you. Join us in Canberra for a professional development day that will address important urological issues across multiple sub-specialties. Experts from nursing, allied health and the medical field will come together at Learning from our Leaders to offer you a jam-packed agenda offering personal growth, professional education and networking. Learning from our Leaders is proudly sponsored by m|devices.


While you are in Canberra, we encourage you to linger for a day or two to enjoy the beautiful gardens, famed museums and galleries.
