Satellite conference is cancelled!

We are very sorry to inform you that the CPDWL satellite meeting in Cleveland, is cancelled. Based on registration numbers, the planned attendance was not sufficient to allow the satellite to succeed.

We deeply regret this decision, and want to thank the satellite committee for all the hard work and commitment they have put into the planning. We also apologize for the trouble this will cause several of you, having to change travel arrangements and other things.

All papers that are finalized will be prepared for publication if desired, even though the satellite is called off.

The good work in the CPDWL section continues. We hope to learn from this experience and look forward to future collaborations with all colleagues interested in continuing professional development.

Catharina Isberg and Ewa Stenberg, CPDWL Co-Chairs
