The NBTC Education Working Group will put forward topics each year for the Regional Transfusion Committees (RTC) rolling programme of national virtual education sessions. The programme runs from April to March and will see 7 education sessions delivered every year, one by each of the 7 Regional Transfusion Committees. Details of upcoming events can be found here Education Working Group

The topics will be shared with the RTC Chairs for their approval in the  January of the preceding year. This is a new process supported by the RTC administrators; we appreciate your patience in case of any teething problems.

RTCs can continue to arrange additional online or face to face educational events as they wish, to meet the needs of their region.
