What is Clinical Education Day?

Clinical Education Day is a full day conference event that aims to inform, challenge, support, develop and inspire educators and trainers, and provide leadership in undergraduate and post-graduate medical education in Northern Ireland.

The event is managed and delivered by NIMDTA, in partnership with Queen’s University Belfast and Ulster University, and has been an immensely popular flagship since the first Clinical Education Day conference back in 2012
