The Centre for Community Child Health Paediatric Professional Development Program (PDP) provides practical information about developmental-behavioural paediatrics in an engaging format to community paediatricians.

The two-day program consists of four workshop-style sessions, with practical application for paediatricians working in their communities.

The theme each year is based on a needs analysis with feedback and advice from those attending. The program uses multidisciplinary and cross-professional speakers, with presentations based on real cases and active participation.

The program occurs each year in October. Registration details and program topics for the 2019 24th Annual PDP will be released in May 2019.

The Paediatric Professional Development Program is coordinated by Associate Professor Gehan Roberts, Associate Director of Clinical Services, Centre for Community Child Health.
