Can you believe it's been almost 2 weeks since Sleep DownUnder?

What a fantastic conference, jam-packed with insightful and informative sessions, a full exhibition, lots of networking and that glittering gala dinner!

All of us in the virtual ASA office have been back hard at work tying up the loose ends and aim to have attendance certificates and conference photos available by mid-December.

Recordings from some sessions will be available to purchase in the learning centre at a later date. 

Thank you to those that completed the education survey during the conference. Congratulations to our $50 gift card winner, Dr Emily Leaman.
