Attending Fellows need to submit a letter of approval from the Head of Department and a CV as well as advising the number of previous ANZSPED Fellows' Schools attended and the number of times you have presented at a Fellows' School (attending Fellows are allowed to attend a maximum of 4 Fellows' Schools) as well as clarifying your Paediatric Endocrine training level.  

Participants will be required to choose from a selected range of topics from the list provided. From these topics, Fellows are required to compile a one paragraph summary for three different case studies (one for each topic) and submit online via the link on the application tab.
