#itswhatyouknow - ANZSOM webinar series
Webinars and events
With face-to-face opportunities for education and networking still quite limited, ANZSOM offers a program of webinars to help our members stay connected and keep learning. All ANZSOM webinars are available nationally to members and AFOEM members at no charge. There is a small charge for non-members. Recordings are available to ANZSOM members on the online learning page.
