Hi all,

I hope you are all well and can attend this event at the University of Derby.

I would be very grateful if anybody who has undertaken professional registration will be willing to give a short talk about their experience at the RNE in Derby. This will help others understand the process and benefits of professional registration.

Please let me know 

Regards

Hi Amrat,

I was just wondering, are you expecting something like a powerpoint presentation or would just a short talk be fine?

Regards,
Martyn

Amrat

Hi Martyn,

Whatever you are comfortable with is fine. A short talk would be great. If you have any other questions please do let me know, but just an honest account of your experiences and expectations of registration would be good.

Regards

Amrat
