Update for applicants
We wished to update you on the format of this year’s Haemophilia Academy. We are pleased to confirm that following further discussions with the Faculty and close monitoring of the government guidance relating to COVID-19, we have proactively made the decision for Haemophilia Academy to be held in a virtual format this year. We are currently revising the agenda accordingly and we are committed to delivering the core elements of the Haemophilia Academy programme in an interactive and engaging format during the virtual training course. As well as delivering the educational content, we will ensure that participants will have the opportunity to make meaningful connections with each other and the Faculty which is an important part of the Haemophilia Academy.
We kindly remind you that the deadline for submitting your application is Friday 17 July. If you have any queries, please do not hesitate to contact the Haemophilia Academy Secretariat
We look forward to receiving your application!
