What is the the purpose of professional membership bodies?
Professional membership bodies have several functions, sometimes not well understood. These include supporting members, (briefings, journals and professional guidance), organising conferences, special interest and regional groups, and promoting the profession through advocacy and public affairs.
What you will learn
This CPD will explore the role and governance structure of professional bodies, the concept of clinical leadership, and how members can help set the strategic direction of their profession.
