WP Evaluation
Feedback is often an overlooked element of outreach events and if it is taken, not much is done with it. We know feedback is essential in ensuring that we produce the best outreach events that we possibly can, so how do we take good feedback to ensure this? This workshop aims to highlight the importance of feedback, how to take it and a chance to create your own feedback forms for events you have led. We look forward to seeing you all there!

I am the current Outreach Lead for the African Caribbean Medical Association (ACMA) at Cardiff University. ACMA’s aim is to promote good race relations and equality of opportunity within our medical school, the healthcare profession and the wider community in Wales. Our end goal is to increase the number of clinically excellent, culturally competent and socially conscious physicians. We aim to accomplish this by firstly inspiring and equipping more African Caribbean students to pursue careers in medicine.
