Distinguished Speakers, Delegates, Colleagues and Friends,
Good morning and welcome to the 11th APMEC.
This is a very nostalgic moment for me, as I began my journey as a "hard-core" medical educator 11 years ago in 2003, at the first APMEC meeting, by presenting my first medical education conference short communication on a pilot project in technology enhanced learning in undergraduate medical education. This was followed by attendance, paper, poster and symposia presentations at subsequent APMEC meetings every year, and later as a member of the organising and working committees of APMEC.
The APMEC meeting has grown greatly over the last 11 years,
and has become a regular forum for passionate and committed health profession educators to meet, exchange ideas, and form collaborations; which is the theme of this year's conference - "Optimising collaboration in medical education: Building bridges, connecting minds".
I thank my team members at the MEU, YLL SOM for their hard work and commitment to the APMEC meeting; my many colleagues at NUHS, and the other teaching hospitals for working with us; and our many international colleagues, and friends for helping make the APMEC not only a success, but continue to grow every year.
May I wish all of you a very successful APMEC meeting.
