IMPORTANT CONFERENCE ANNOUNCEMENT

Due to the current COVID-19 situation throughout Australia, the ACCYPN Board and Conference Committee have decided to change the a Virtual Conference.

This means that if you registered as an in-person Delegate your registration will be converted to a Virtual Delegate.  Please note - the Conference will be recorded and made available on demand to all attendees. We will be in touch with in-person delegates to convert their registration to virtual and refund Master Class and dinner registrations.  We are currently updating the program and will advise when it is available.

Still planning on travelling to Darwin?  We are seeking EOI's from registered delegates that still plan to travel to Darwin (if restrictions allow) to gather together in a Hub venue - a decision on this will be based on interest and restrictions.
