Dear Colleagues,
The Organising Committee of APMEC 2011 and the Medical Education Unit (MEU), Yong Loo Lin School of Medicine, National University of Singapore, National University Health System, cordially invite you to attend the 8th Asia Pacific Medical Education Conference (APMEC) from 26th to 30th January 2011 at the National University of Singapore, Singapore.
The theme for our 8th APMEC is "Continuum of Medical Education: From Undergraduate Learning to Professional Practice – Trends, Issues, Priorities, and Strategies (TIPS)". The conference focus is to share and learn from the experience and best practices adopted internationally. This year, I am happy to note that we have a full array of pre-conference workshops covering medical and health professional education as well as two pre–conference training programs conducted in collaboration with the European Association of Standardised Patient Educators (ASPE) and the Association for Medical Education in Europe (AMEE).
The Asia Pacific Medical Education Conference has grown and strengthened over the years. It is now in its eighth year attracting participants, not only from the Asia-Pacific region, but also from around the globe. For our 7th APMEC 2010, 700 medical and health professionals from 32 countries participated. We hope to see an even stronger participation in 2011. As per previous APMECs, we have invited distinguished medical and health professional educators to share their experiences, expertise and wisdom in our 8th APMEC 2011. More details are available at our website http://medicine.nus.edu.sg/cenmed/apmec8/.
On behalf of the Organising Committee, it gives me great pleasure to invite you to join us at our 8th APMEC 2011 and to submit abstract/s for this Conference.
I look forward to your participation and to welcoming you to Singapore in January 2011.
Sincerely,
