CPD activity
Attendees who viewed live presentations at ACPIC20:
We are marking attendance through our ACP site manually so it is taking a little while. If you marked your attendance on the attendance sheet, you will receive an email asking you to complete your reflection task once your ACP account is updated. As it may take a few days to get everyone's account updated, you may like to write your reflection now when the session is fresh in your mind and copy it over once it's available on your ACP account. Please note that attendance is marked per presentation.
Attendees who view recorded presentations through the ACPIC20 event platform need to enter their attendance through the link provided on the event platform.
