The DEMEC planning committee is delighted that  for the 4th time, the leading organisations in medical education and training across the UK have come together to provide a unique and high quality joint national UK Medical Education conference in December 2021.

The last three conferences have provided an exceptional opportunity for clinicians involved in healthcare education and training to learn, share best practice and drive current thinking in the field of medical education and training, meeting in a single conference with expertise from all. Parallel submissions this year exceeded previous numbers by 20%  and shows how increasingly relevant DEMEC is for those involved in education and training. It is the Medical education conference to present at.

The conference programme has now been finalised. We have a wide range of sessions and as another first for UK Medical Education we are running the conference both virtually and face to face, catering for all needs.

Our internationally renowned speakers and handpicked programme and will provide delegates with the ideas and information to enable improvement and innovation in their educational practice. More importantly it allows us to consider how we support in difficult times, and times of transition, continuing the spirit of collaboration seen in the NHS as we continue to deal with COVOD 19 as clinicians and educators.

We strive, through this, to support and develop the educational leaders of today and tomorrow.

At a time of change, risks and opportunities, with a recognised need for collaboration across traditional boundaries, this conference will inspire and motivate you as you learn with and link you to your peers across the country.
