Invitation

Dear Colleagues

We are pleased to announce that the 20th RACDS Convocation will be held in Perth, Western Australia. The Convocation will be conducted at the Burswood Entertainment Complex, 11-14 March 2010, and this invitation is open to Fellows and Members of the College, as well as our other Dental colleagues in Western Australia.

This premium biennial College event embraces the theme “Interdisciplinary Dentistry for the New Decade: something for everyone”.

The Scientific Programme includes highly regarded international key note speakers, ably supported by Australasian lecturers. The Young Lecturer’s Award session will augment the Scientific Programme.

A comprehensive Trade Display will run concurrently with the Scientific Meeting.

The Opening Ceremony on the 11th March promises much interest. Apart from the formal induction of new Fellows and Members into the College, the opening address will be made by an eminent former military officer who works for NASA.

The social events will enable opportunities to renew old friendships and network with your colleagues in a convivial ambience that only March in Perth, Western Australia can offer. The Burswood Entertainment Complex is a venue providing complete conferencing and leisure experience, with both four and five star accommodation options on site, 24 hour casino, golf course, day spa, restaurants and bars, all conveniently located within parkland on the shore of Perth’s Swan River.

The Local Organising Committee look forward to welcoming you to Perth next March.
