Masterclass A: Appearance Industries workshop (Tuesday morning 25 March 2025 9.30am, includes Morning tea & lunch) $185 + GST
In this half day workshop, discover who the appearance industries are, the current legislative climate within New Zealand for these industries and dive deep into the common practices these industries undertake. Through understanding the common infection routes, analyse some of the common procedures and consider how local bylaws or The Health Act would apply. Explore Environmental health's role in working with these industries and trying to promote and protect public health through minimisation of infection and disease spread.

Building upon base knowledge, dive deeper and see how this knowledge and practical skills of Environmental Health professionals can be utilised further to assist in managing major disaster events, and work towards protecting human health.
