The Fellows Education Day was held on the Sunday prior to the research presentations – this day was a great success with distinguished guest speakers Drs.

This year we introduced a PEM Panel discussion at the end of the day, 6 directors from across Canada participated in this dynamic panel discussion. Dr. William Ghali from the University of Calgary presented on the ‘Ward of the 21st Century’. The ‘Acronym Contest’ was handed over to the Vancouver group and also introduced the ‘PERC-Oscars’.
