E:News | CAA's exciting year ahead

25/01/2022

Dear friends & colleagues,

Welcome to 2022, I hope you have all had a good and productive start. It is with great excitement that we can share with you some upcoming events.

Firstly, we are over the moon to be able to provide more information on our CAA Congress that is taking shape and occurring at ICC, Sydney from 11th - 13th August. In just under a month we will be kicking off this year's Webinar Series, starting with two speakers, Dr Graham McClelland alongside Ambulance Victoria's Ziad Nahme, on real-time clinical feedback to improve Clinical Practice. We're also ecstatic to be sharing that this year is CAA's 60th Birthday. Please keep on your radar our exciting 60th Anniversary Gala, set to take place in December.

We're very excited for the events that the year ahead brings for CAA, and we hope you are too. 

With kindest regards,

Mojca Bizjak-Mikic
