Brain Injury Group webinar events
The Coronavirus pandemic that began in March 2020 necessitated a change in working and learning.
No longer could participants attend our brain injury training events in person so instead we have started to develop a library of webinar recordings and training. Whilst our in-person training events are scheduled to go ahead later in 2020 and 2021, we have decided to include our initial online Brain Injury Group brain injury training webinar recordings for free below.
We also have webinar training events scheduled for 2020 and 2021. You can see the range of Brain Injury Group brain injury training webinars at: www.braininjurygroup.co.uk/events-calendar/category/brain-injury-group-events/list/
