SHORT COURSES

Cambridge Healthtech Institute is pleased to offer short courses taking place on Sunday and Monday at the Moscone South Convention Center. The short courses are designed to be instructional, interactive and provide in-depth information on a specific topic. They allow for one-on-one interaction and provide a great way to explain more technical aspects that would otherwise not be covered during the main conference programs that take place Monday-Wednesday or symposia and training seminars that take place Thursday-Friday.
