The intended audience for this event includes:
The Dental Hygienists’ Association of Australia Ltd (DHAA) invite you to attend the 2016 National Symposium in Hobart from 10 to 12 November 2016. The 2016 Symposium will also celebrate DHAA’s 25th Anniversary.
The first day of the Symposium will be held at the world famous MONA, followed by two days at the Hotel Grand Chancellor on Hobart’s waterfront.
The theme for the symposium, “Making a difference”, is a reflection of the last 25 years of the Dental Hygienists Association of Australia. Not only has the DHAA strived to make a difference for the profession of Dental Hygiene, but each of our members have strived to make a difference on a daily basis to the mouths of Australians.
We have found world renowned speakers to provide ground-breaking content to assist our delegates to continue to advance their knowledge and sustain their high level of competency in the dental field. The program will appeal not only to Hygienists, Therapists and Oral Health Therapists, but the entire dental team.
The program will be complemented by social opportunities including MONA, the Symposium dinner on Hobart’s waterfront and the time to spend wandering Salamanca market.
We look forward to welcoming you to Hobart; we know delegates will find that attending the Hobart Symposium makes a difference.
