Professional development opportunity

The Cooperative Research Centre for Developing Northern Australia (CRCNA) has partnered with the Digital Health CRC (DHCRC) and RMIT Online to deliver a suite of industry-relevant short courses designed to revolutionise the digital capability of healthcare professionals across Northern Australia.
