Common questions

Anyone doing paediatric feeding work — whether that's your whole role in a multidisciplinary clinic, or part of a broader caseload in a community team, regional service or private practice.

Medicine, speech pathology, dietetics, occupational therapy, psychology, nursing and allied health all sit in the same room. If you are a clinician interested in children with feeding difficulties, you belong here.

Speakers share practical experiences, resources and innovations from real clinics. It isn't a research forum and makes no claims to best practice.

Not everything you hear will fit your setting — take what's useful and leave the rest. A practical idea you can apply this week often beats a paper stuck in a fifteen-year knowledge-translation gap.

Sessions run live and aren't recorded or shared afterwards. That's deliberate: it keeps the room a safe, collegial space where people can talk openly about what actually happens in their clinic.

Cameras and microphones stay off for attendees; questions come through the chat.

Registration is free and takes a minute. Registrations are reviewed before approval to keep this a clinician-only space, and the Microsoft Teams link is emailed to you once you're approved.

You only need to do this once. After you've attended, we'll let you know about every future symposium and send the joining link by default. Every email has an unsubscribe link.
