WELCOMEThe Australasian College for Infection Prevention and Control (ACIPC) is the peak professional body for infection prevention and control across Australasia. Established in 2012 from the merger of the Australian Infection Control Association with the existing state-based infection control associations across Australia, the College is an incorporated company engaged actively in a broad range of national and international programs representing the discipline of infection prevention and control including consultancy, policy development, education, professional development. The work of the College is driven by its many significant partnerships with governments, universities, corporations, and community groups nationally and internationally, which are core to our approach.

The College is moving into its next phase of development building on a reputation for innovative service delivery and client driven practice and will be governed by an Executive Council (EC) that consists initially of 7 representatives from each State and Territory, a President, Immediate Past President and President
Elect. The new structure will also see the introduction of 4 committees which will be the:

• Credentialing and Professional Standards committee
• Education and Research committee
• Policy and Publications committee
• Special Interest Group Advisory committee

The ACIPC 7th Biennial Conference will take place from Monday 8 October to Thursday 11 October 2012 at the Sydney Exhibition and Convention Centre, Darling Harbour, Sydney, Australia.

The conference is Australia’s and one of the region’s premier industry related events.  It attracts over 500 delegates and 55 trade exhibitors, and is the major educational and networking forum for professionals working in and related to the area of infection prevention and control.

The key theme for this event is 'building, balancing, believing and beyond', with a program containing pre-conference workshops and presentations by experts in the infection prevention and control field including well known and highly respected international and national invited keynote speakers.

The 2012 conference will highlight and build on accomplishments of recent, past and present research.  It will showcase innovative strategies that will define infection surveillance, prevention and control into the challenging future and beyond.  The conference theme will take delegates on a path of reflection and celebration as to where the new national professional body has come from and is working towards.

The event will be an excellent opportunity for infection control professionals from novices to experts and others with an interest in infection prevention and control to share knowledge, skills and experience.  Delegates will be able to discuss the latest advances from varied viewpoints and the scientific program will ensure a state-of-art, evidence-based and cutting-edge conference.

We look forward to seeing you at the event.
