Practice today, change lives tomorrow

Hands on

Our Workshops

The iMed Conference® 9.0 Workshops are a great opportunity to learn something new or to improve your skills!

We listened to your feedback! The big news for this year's edition is that there will be not one, but TWO days of Workshops. Moreover, the Workshops will take place solely during the afternoon, so that everyone gets a chance to participate.

Once again you will benefit from our dynamic system of Workshop sessions - you may choose a Workshop (one per day) and each one integrates different sessions, thus allowing for a multifaceted approach to various areas of a certain theme.

Registration is open from the 18th of October at 9 PM.
The iMed Conference® ticket allows access to the two days of workshops.
