FINE Conference 3-5 October 2012
While outside the weather was terrible the atmosphere inside the FINE conference at Cardiff City Hall on 3-5 October 12 was warm and extremely collegiate. With over 200 delegates and 22 countries represented this was truly an international nurse educators' conference. Much work was shared and new friendships and alliances created.
To help those who perhaps could not attend and to remind those who did of what great things they heard, the presentations for each of the sessions are laid out below.
The programme for the three days can be found here: (how to access PDF files)
