Welcome to the PDS program
Please note: the PDS days are only open to RMTs.
Two days of workshops and two very special workshops on Thursday from the conference's international keynote speaker, Professor Dorit Amir. One for beginner music therapists and one longer workshop for advanced music therapists. Places are limited with Professor Amir, but the workshops should prove to be a real treat. To make sure everyone else isn't disappointed, there will be two more streams of activity on Thursday, so there's plenty of choice.
