After a disrupted couple of years and delays for all ATSA Independent Living Expos, planning is now well underway for the 2022 events with Brisbane all but sold out and Sydney more than 85% sold at the time of writing.
There are many new exhibitors involved with both events and a number of presentations submitted from presenters who have not previously been involved with the event. The program will have a few surprises when it is released early in 2022 and bookings for the sessions will be in demand.
Why should you put ATSA Independent Living Expo dates in your must do for 2022?
If you haven’t attended previously take a look at some recent feedback:
‘Thanks for an absolutely fabulous two days. As a consumer I learnt lots and now have some great new pieces of AT on order. I was also able to gain wonderful information that I’m now going to collate and share with members in the support group I volunteer with for my disability, FND (functional neurological disorder).’
‘So glad I made the 3.5hr trip to Canberra to attend. I first attended in 2019 and found it to be an invaluable experience, just as I did this year. I am almost certain I will be back to attend many more expos in the future. Thank you again to all involved in making these expos happen, especially during these challenging times.’
‘It was terrific and so nice to get our AT community together.’
‘Loved it all as usual. Good variety of stands. EASY to navigate in 3-wheel (small) electric scooter’
‘Was really great to see all the new stuff that is out there in one place especially as a new grad and felt really comfortable being able to ask all the questions I wanted about different products.’
‘The ATSA expo was definitely worthwhile to gain knowledge about new AT products and I found all the seminars I attended very informative to improve clinical OT practices.’
‘Thank you for continuing to provide this expo, I thoroughly enjoy attending and have done so for many years’
‘Always look forward to going to ATSA, wealth of info, products, education and networking. It was a great event loved every minute I was there’
‘Thank you again-love ATSA! Am an OT of 35+ years and it’s my favourite event’
