Clinical Governance Master Class Feedback

This was the most useful course I have attended in a very long time.  It was just so relevant to the needs of our organisation with lots of great strategies on how to improve our clinical care to our clients.  It was practical, relevant and had really good examples of how to implement improves straight away as well as improving our clinical governance framework organisationally.  Thank you for your insightful and easy to understand presentation.

ACIS Comprehensive Course

This was just so valuable, not just in learning about ACIS but you helped us so much to translate it into practice to improve our care and service provision.  It provided great insight into dignity of risk, open disclosure, cultural safety, clinical governance and governance responsibilities.  I'm so glad to see the developments in ACIS to this new 4.0 as it will really help us develop, not only to be credentialled in it but to provide better systems and processes in our organisation.
