For more information and to register please click here http://www.eventure-online.com/eventure/welcome.do?type=participant&congress=49_1001 First Global Regulation Survey – your input requested In preparation for this exciting Conference, a global survey on Health Professions Regulation has been developed and recently launched. Every participant (and interested person) is invited to complete the survey here http://whpcr2010.questionpro.com/. (Please forward the link to all who may be interested.) The goal of the survey is to provide an overview of the diversity and scope of regulation models throughout five professions of focus: medical doctors, pharmacists, nurses, dentists and physiotherapists. It will also enable us to gather and share contact details of national regulatory bodies and/or the national associations of regulators to facilitate their interaction with potential contacts and collaborators. The results of this survey will be presented at the second WHPCR in February 2010. Programme This year the programme http://www.whpa.org/whpcr2010/programme.htm consists of a main Session with three workshops running in parallel tracks, along with a profession-specific wrap-up Session. This will allow participants more interaction and opportunities to discuss presented information across and within disciplines. Organizers of the WHPCR 2010 are pleased to offer participants a comprehensive, cross-professional programme that will present invaluable information for all represented disciplines. Top speakers http://www.whpa.org/whpcr2010/programme.htm from all corners of the world will focus on multi-disciplinary strategies for the future development of Health Professionals’ regulation.
