Changes in the Education and Product Support Team | ||
By David Markwell, Head of Education I am pleased to announce that from April 1st, 2017, Linda Bird will take over the leadership of the Education & Product Support Team. It has been a privilege to build and lead this team over the past few years but now is an ideal time for this change to take effect. Linda has been a key player in the successful outcomes achieved by the E-Learning program as well as taking forward many valuable initiatives. From my perspective, I have great confidence knowing that Linda is willing to take on this role allowing me to step back a little. That being said, stepping back does not mean walking away and for the foreseeable future, I will continue to play a full time role supporting Linda, the team and SNOMED International. My enthusiasm for SNOMED CT is undimmed and I plan to continue contributing to its success. |
