Dear Colleagues,

The Organising Committee of APMEC 2017 and the Centre for Medical Education (CenMED), Yong Loo Lin School of Medicine, National University of Singapore, National University Health System, cordially invite you to attend the 14th Asia Pacific Medical Education Conference (APMEC) from 11 to 15 January 2017 at the National University of Singapore, Singapore. We are delighted to be partnering the Ministry of Health, Singapore and ACGME International to deliver this conference.

We have specially chosen our theme "From Globalisation of Education to Global Healthcare – Trends ● Issues ● Priorities ● Strategies (TIPS)". The aim of the conference is to share our experiences as educators, and learn from experts in medical and healthcare professional education some of the latest ideas, and best practices adopted internationally. This is also an opportunity for participants to stimulate discussions in medical and health professional education with the experts.

The Asia Pacific Medical Education Conference has grown and strengthened over the years. It is now in its 14th year attracting participants, not only from the Asia-Pacific region, but also from around the globe. For our 13th APMEC 2016, we had close to 1,100 medical and healthcare professionals from over 38 countries. We hope to see an even stronger participation in 2017.

As with previous APMECs, we have invited distinguished medical and healthcare professional educators to share their experiences, expertise and wisdom at the 2017 conference.

On behalf of the Organising Committee, it gives me great pleasure to invite you to join us at our 14th APMEC 2017.

I look forward to your participation and to welcoming you to Singapore in January 2017.

With best wishes

Dujeepa
