Training, cooperation and knowledge exchange are key factors. This conference aims to improve the network knowledge of professional groups, by telling them about new developments and methods, about opportunities and threats and how to deal with them.

The constant changes make huge demands on management in particular to retain insight into the consequences of all these developments. This can have organisational consequences, but it will certainly have financial and/or legal consequences. We can achieve a lot, but is this what we want?

During the two and a half day programme - featuring leading speakers from home and abroad - the following themes will be addressed:
