Nursing and Midwifery planning 20th anniversary conference 

Published on 16 September, 2011 

In around 12 months' time (Oct 5-6, 2012), the School of Nursing and Midwifery will be holding a conference celebrating 20 years of graduating nursing students from CQUniversity.

The working title of the conference 'Celebrating the Past; Creating the Future', will attract nurses and midwives from the region, from the alumni and interstate.

Keynote speakers have been approached and will be drawn from different aspects of Nursing's development.

Associate Professors Kerry Reid Searl and Anthony Welch (from Rockhampton and Noosa campuses respectively) head up a small organising committee. The committee membership draws on staff from the School of Nursing and Midwifery from all campuses.

The conference, to be held in Rockhampton, will also attract involvement from other Schools in the University - such as Creative and Performing Arts.  Although in its early stages of planning, the conference will be a major event for the School in 2012.
