Feedback and comments from previous attendees:
“A great overview of what ART services are all about and I think that the course is such a valuable teaching tool for new members coming into the industry. There is really no other place to go for information apart from websites and on the job learning. I think that a course of this nature is crucial for the ongoing learning and education of new staff.”
“The START program was very insightful and helpful in terms of overall background knowledge and the implications/applications of IVF treatment.”
“I have been in the IVF / fertility environment for 6 months. I feel this was great timing to further my knowledge and support the my understanding of how fertility works and how I can support the clinical team. I would strongly recommend this course to anyone new to fertility.”
“I think the program offers relevant information from all of the aspects of reproductive technology for anyone new to the industry. Regardless of which area you work in, it allows for excellent overall understanding of the technology, and the role it has in the community.”
“It was fantastic, very useful for the beginner in the IVF field.”
“Exceptionally useful program and organisation- thank you!”
“…Thanks for a fab weekend – I’ve been in IVF for six months and the conference was perfect for my learning needs.
