Early Management of Severe Trauma (EMST)

Due to the developing situation with the COVID-19 pandemic we have cancelled all RACS face-to-face events including courses, forums, and committee meetings through to 31 August 2020.

Registrations for all remaining 2020 courses are currently suspended until further notice.

If you are currently registered in a 2020 course later in 2020, we request you please wait for advice from the College regarding the status of your course. You will be given three months notice as to whether the course will proceed or be cancelled. Any participants registered in a course that is cancelled will receive a full refund of their course fee.
