Why Attend?
As a part of our commitment to enhancing and increasing knowledge and skills in the Public Sector, GovNet is a CPD Member and conferences are independently assessed for their content and value to delegates.
All GovNet’s Conferences are CPD Certified – this means that attendance at any of our events can contribute to your Continuing Personal and Professional Development and help you meet your own targets.
At the close of the conference you will be given proof of attendance as well as the opportunity to reflect on what you will take away from the conference – an inspirational presentation or speech, a thought provoking seminar or useful networking opportunity can all count towards your CPD.
