Healixia - and the former associations that joined forces within Healixia - has a long history of offering educational sessions of high quality, on topics that help our members expand their knowledge and grow as a professional.

Our 6 education groups - with members active in clinical research, early development, medical affairs, regulatory affairs, Market Acces and legal/compliance & ethics - meet several times throughout the year to brainstorm, shape and help organize these sessions. They keep tabs on what lives within the sector, what topics are relevant to explore further and bring to our members. We always take into account the feedback and ideas of our members themselves, who can fill out an evaluation form after each session. For most of our sessions, the materials (slides, documents, replay of the session,... ) are made available for the participants.

For our sessions, we work together with experts from industry, academia, authorities, regulatory bodies,...

To give you a feel of what to expect, here is a selection of the offer within Healixia from recent years:
