EUNIS BencHEIT Task Force: BM2019 survey new deadline 29 May 2020

EUNIS BencHEIT Task Force has had several concerned questions regarding the data gathering schedule since the COVID-19 outbreak. Therefore the BencHEIT steering group decided to postpone the deadline by one month. The new deadline is Friday 29th of May 2020. We hope this gives you enough time to gather all the data!

We will organise a webinar where we go through the results of this round. The preliminary schedule for this is in late June. The yearly workshop will be in the end of November in Aarhus, Denmark. We hope that travelling will be safe by then. Stay tuned for more information!

At the moment we are pleased to say that we have as many as 48 registered participants. If some of you are still thinking about joining, there is still time. You can register here by filling in your organisation´s information.

If you have any comments or questions, please do not hesitate to contact us on bm-pg@eunis.org.
