Workshops 16-17 June 2011

Intensive and interactive 4-8 hour workshops were scheduled to take place just before the GPD Conference.

Each workshop addressed a single subject in a comprehensive and practical format. Workshops are an excellent forum for knowledge acquirement and networking as participants discuss problems and solutions at hand. The workshop organizers had the privilege to select the participants in each workshop.
