Healthcare Team Challenge
Nau mai, haere mai.
Welcome to the 2018 Healthcare Team Challenge (HCTC). We are looking for experienced practitioners who are keen to mentor a team during the ATBHIX Conference. We know you are going to thoroughly enjoy being a part of this experience.
We are inviting;
(1) all students and new graduate practitioners (with less than 2 years practice experience) who are keen to join an international healthcare team and compete in the 2018 International HCTC and,
(2) all interested mentors to support this fantastic event.
Join us at the Pōwhiri & Welcome Reception on Monday 3 September 5pm at AUT City Campus. There will be a HCTC briefing for everyone interested in participating from 6.30-8pm (please meet at the Registration desk at 6.30pm Monday 3 September). This is when you will meet the HCTC planning team, get to know the members of your international HCTC team (made up for 4-6 members from different professional backgrounds), meet your mentors and learn about the case study. The HCTC presentations will be held from 10am-12pm on Thursday 6 September in the main lecture theatre at the AUT City Campus in front of conference delegates and an expert panel of judges. This is when you will present your team’s plan for working with your client (case study) and respond to further questions as a team. Refer to the Team Member and Mentor information packs for further details (both available shortly).
