Summary

This article contains information on how to complete a conference/seminar report.

What is the Conference/Seminar Report tool?

The Conference/Seminar Report is an Independent Learning Experience tool that can be used by an individual to record attendance at a seminar or conference and to guide self-evaluation and reflection of subsequent impact on practice. It can also be used for inclusion towards advancing practice recognition.

Conference/Seminar Report Process

🧩 Prepare

🎯 Observe

💭 Reflect

Identify a conference or seminar that meets the development goals identified in your Continuing Professional Development (CPD) plan or through other professional reflection.

Attend chosen conference or seminar

Engage in self-reflection on key learnings from conference/seminar content and the impact on your current and/or future practice
Complete the Conference/Seminar Report digital template
Attach seminar/conference certificate of attendance (optional)

You may have engaged in discussion with professional peers, mentors or managers to encourage reflective practice. However, this is an Independent Learning Experience and therefore the final submission can be completed without the need for collaboration to be recorded

Practice Recognition Level

The pharmacist will independently identify a conference or seminar that applies to the level of practice recognition that they are currently performing at or working towards (resident, register, consultant) to include in the conference/seminar report.

Please refer to …….. for the further guidance on the markers of performance at each recognition level.

Reflection & Goal Setting

The pharmacist is encouraged to utilize the SMART goal technique to develop any learning or development goals that are identified from self-reflection after the experience.

Forms and Templates

The conference/seminar report tool is available via the ANZCAP Digital platform. Ideally pharmacists will enter relevant information into the digital tool after completion of the seminar or conference.

Alternatively, pharmacists may use conference attendance tools from their own organisation and upload it to the digital platform where they can then confirm completion of an Independent Reflection Learning Experience.
