💜Credentialling pathway: understand your pathway and what to expect
Starting the initial credentialling pathway can feel like a lot to work through, especially if you are doing it for the first time.

This live ADEA session will walk members through the initial credentialling pathway and share practical tips on what to expect, how to prepare and how to navigate the process.

There will also be time for questions, so members can clarify key steps and feel more confident about what comes next.

📌Please note: this session will not be recorded to help create an open and supportive space for members to ask questions freely. A written summary of key points discussed will be shared afterwards.
