CPD Points
All delegates should be aware that attendance
to each session of the Conference will be
electronically recorded through a bar-coding
process, implemented for the first time in 2009.
The process involves each delegate swiping
their barcode, which will be located on their
Conference pass, as they enter the sessions. It
is the responsibility of the delegate to ensure
that their barcode has been swiped at the point
of entry. It is essential that delegates arrive
on time for sessions, as late entrants may not
be given opportunity to swipe their barcode.
The Conference organisers will then use this
electronic database to distribute attendance
certificates. Any delegate, who was not swiped
into a session, will not be issued with an
attendance certificate.

The Conference venue is a non-smoking
establishment and laws prohibit smoking within
4 metres of an entrance to a resort. However,
