About APEC
Where Australia's perioperative educators meet
APEC is the premier conference for perioperative education managers in Australasia, now running for a third year. Educators, managers, Directors of Nursing and, in some cases, hospital CEOs spend the day learning from each other. They're the people who choose the products, programs and training their theatre teams use. APEC is about quality over numbers: the decision-makers you want, all in one room.
Who's in the room
- Clinical nurse educators and perioperative educators
- Nurse unit managers and perioperative services managers
- Directors of Nursing and, in some cases, hospital CEOs
- Hospital and day-surgery leaders from public and private sites
- Concept Coaches and emerging education leaders
Why partners choose APEC
- You meet the decision-makers. Delegates choose what their teams buy and how they train.
- You're seen before and after the day through our newsletter and socials to 3,000+ nurses.
- You won't get lost in the crowd. We cap partners at 10.
The people at APEC set the training standards and help decide what goes into their operating theatres. For a brand, there's no better place to build real relationships with Australia's perioperative leaders, and one good conversation here can open the door to a whole hospital.
