Delegate testimonials
A great opportunity to gain knowledge and build relationships away from work. Great range of speakers with knowledge in their area. Great to see how research is helping breastfeeding and how the language we use can make a difference to the experience of mothers and babies.
I have been involved with the ABA since the birth of my first child as a mother, then as a counselor and now as a health professional having attended the Health Professional Seminars for the last 15yrs or so. There is always something new to learn and it is a fabulous way to catch up with other health professionals who support new families. I look forward to attending each year.
A great opportunity for professionals to gather to learn up to date information, share knowledge and network.
Great seminar series. ABA continues to cover interesting, appropriate and research based breastfeeding information.
An excellent PD day. Very enjoyable and informative.
Amazing opportunity to hear the latest in breastfeeding research and advocacy.
Great venue, great presentations, lovely people, look forward to creating positive change for families to reach their breastfeeding goals.
The ABA Health Professional seminar series is always a well organised and informative program that gives me the opportunity to refresh my knowledge and network with like minded individuals who support breastfeeding.
Announced soon ...
ABA is a not-for-profit organisation. Any income from the health professional seminars is used to support the provision of evidence based and best practice breastfeeding information to mothers.
