Mental Health in Transport Workshop - Free

Date: 27 May 2016

The Australian Aviation Psychology Association (AAvPA) is pleased to host a workshop on mental health in transport. The objective of the workshop is to bring together current practice from the regulatory, medical, operational, and industrial perspectives and identify any gaps or areas for enhancement.

The workshop will firstly provide short presentations from regulatory, medical and industry representatives describing the current state of play. The workshop will then provide attendees the opportunity to "think tank" ideas for future activities in this critical aspect of well-being and safety.

Confirmed speakers include:

- Dr Michael Drane (CASA)
- Dr Ian Cheng (Australasian Society of Aerospace Medicine)
- Captain David Booth (AFAP)
- Dr Ian Hosegood (Qantas)
- LTCOL Laura Sinclair CO - 1st Psychology Unit
- Gavin Kelso (Hunterlink Recovery Services)
- Mal Christie (ATSB)

This is a free event, thanks to the generous support of the Civil Aviation Safety Authority, the Australian Maritime Safety Authority, the Australian Transport Safety Bureau, and AAvPA.
