2023/2024 Annual Conference

The 2024/25 annual Scottish Medical Appraisers conference was organised to support the development of the appraiser workforce.  Previously this was held as part of the NES Medical Education Conference but following user feedback, the Appraiser conference was held separately to allow those with dual roles to take part and engage with both events.

The programme for this year's half-day event was as below:
