Our annual mini workshop meeting is always popular. This is a ‘members for members’ kind of day when we share our knowledge with each other.
Workshops run for two hours. Seven workshops will run concurrently and there will be morning and afternoon sessions of each workshop.
Morning session: 10:30-12:30
Afternoon session: 13:30-15:30
The cost is €15/workshop.
