Sponsorship and Exhibition Opportunities
The Organising Committee of the
13th Ottawa International Conference on Clinical Competence “Ozzawa 2008” would like to invite you to Melbourne, Australia in March 2008.
With a strong line up of speakers expected to present on a wide range of interesting and compelling issues in Clinical Competence, this Conference provides an unique opportunity for you to meet, network with and market to a national and international audience, providing your company with high level exposure and an opportunity for growth.
‘Ozzawa 2008 – Assessment for Life' will spotlight the centrality of assessment in academic and professional life. We know that assessment of individuals is a vital part of quality assurance in healthcare education. However the Conference will also recognise that increasingly achievement, both in education and in clinical outcomes, is dependent on teamwork and collaboration with other professions, and with learning, working and being assessed as part of that team.
As a congress sponsor your organisation will be able to demonstrate ongoing commitment and support to the Medical Education profession in Australia and internationally. With exceptional trade display facilities and numerous sponsorship opportunities, companies will be able to showcase their products and services to both local and international delegates.
Why Australia?
With recent rapid developments in interest in Medical Education, from undergraduate to continuing, Australia is currently a huge consumer of international medical graduates. Its undergraduate courses rely heavily on student centred learning methods and, as befits the largest island in the world, there is intense interest in rural and remote healthcare delivery.
Why Melbourne?
Melbourne is one of the most ‘liveable' cities on the planet, hosts the largest University in the southern hemisphere, espouses a multicultural ethos and offers an unparalleled range of downtown accommodation from ultra-budget to 6 star boutique hotels. From fine dining and shopping, an impressive offering of arts and culture, unforgettable sights and sounds and botanic delights, you'll find it all in Melbourne . Or discover Victoria 's breathtaking natural scenery, spectacular coastal views, fascinating Aboriginal heritage and delightful wildlife.
Make the decision and plan to come to Melbourne, Australia in March 2008.
