Note this is a video recording of an online meeting conducted using the Zoom.us platform. Inevitably such recordings suffer a little in terms of their production values because of the internet connectivity and quality of webcams. Despite that, they allow us to provide additional valuable insights in to the MedComms business and we can involve a wider range of speakers who can participate from the comfort of their own desks, wherever in the world they are.

In this webinar we’re joined by Sally Stringer and Edward Rochford, both of HealthCare 21 Communications (part of the Lucid Group), Sarah Fogg, an independent learning and development consultant, and Stephanie Wasek, a freelance medical writing specialist who has just now joined HealthCare 21 Communications (part of the Lucid Group). We examine the grounding principles and essential elements of learning and development for medical writers at the key stages of their career. It further explores what roles are available to writers at early and later career stages (both in house and freelance) and considerations for selecting the path that rights for you will be discussed. Finally, unique writing and training opportunities for senior, experienced writers within Lucid Group’s new Centre of Writing Excellence will be shared. And we answer questions from the audience.

It should be of interest to all medical writers and wannabes, and especially anyone with a practical interest in furthering the development of the medical writing profession.

Recorded 19 February 2020 as a MedComms Networking webinar. Produced by NetworkPharma.tv
