NTRB Pre-Conference Workshops

Pre-conference workshops held on the 2nd of June will be open to NTRB delegates only. This is a wonderful opportunity for NTRB staff to link up and discuss issues that directly concern the workings of NTRB's. We call on NTRB staff and executive to develop knowledge based workshops for their peers. We will be accepting workshop abstracts under the same conditions as that stated above.

Workshop presentations

Abstracts for workshop presentations should:

• Describe the topic
• Clearly express the question under discussion (if appropriate)
• Make clear the purpose of the workshop

The workshops themselves should:

• Attempt to engage participants as much as possible
• Encourage active participation in the workshop
• Be flexible and open to change as the workshop unfolds
• Be directed at sharing and/or exchanging of information between facilitator and participants
