Career Development and Mental Health Workshops
2020 Virtual Workshops
Our workshops have been a highlight for many OHBM attendees and this year we decided to offer five online workshops during July and August. These workshops are aimed at providing practical suggestions on career development and mental health management of our trainees.
All attendees must read the Code of Conduct for participation in this event. Adherence to the code of conduct will be monitored by OHBM SIG members during the events.
Videos of all five Career Development and Mental Health Workshops are available on our YouTube channel!
