This is the usual annual Scotland version of the NHS-HE Forum which has run as an additional, separate event since 2006 to particularly focus on the NHS-HE connectivity and shared content challenges in Scotland.

It last met in October 2012 and has been waiting on news on the Scotland Wide Area Network (SWAN) procurement which is set to replace N3 as the NHS network in Scotland. Ron MacDonald, Head of National Infrastructure Services at NHS National Services Scotland has agreed to be the key note speaker.

Please put the 10th July in your diaries for the next Janet Scotland Briefing Day.  

This year we will be holding both events on the same day, so you can choose whether to come to the whole day or a half day.

The Strategic part will be held in the morning, followed by lunch and the technical day in the afternoon.  We hope to record and videostream the event.  The programme has yet to be finalised.

The venue is the Royal College of Surgeons in Edinburgh:http://www.rcsed.ac.uk
