EFPPEC Symposium III : Making Change Happen

EFPPEC's third annual symposium was a great success! Held in partnership with the Canadian Society of Palliative Care Physicians, we had an attendance rate of approximately 120 participants. Our largest symposium to date! Thank you to everyone who participated in this event.

With this year's Symposium, our goal was to create an occasion for an extensive group of educators from a range of professions to come together and to enhance interprofessional and discipline-specific networking. Furthermore, we had hoped to engage discussions concerning options for sustainability of educating future professionals in palliative and end-of-life care.

Thank you to the presenters of the two morning workshops. To view the PowerPoint presentations, please click on the titles below.
