Comments from Past Symposium Participants
-
I strongly recommend that physician lab directors attend a COLA
Symposium a minimum of at least once/year. For either the moderate or high
complexity lab director, this conference is more or less a ‘must.’ This
seminar provided great insights on management and organizational skills
needed for the operation of moderate and high complexity labs. - B.

You should know that I hate this sort of organizational stuff normally,
but … I’m actually excited about getting back home and getting to work
on this. I have a much clearer sense of what our strengths and weaknesses
are and what we need to do. - J. Gettinger, MD, Family Practice

I am a lab director in California. I like your symposia because of the
wide variety of speakers to choose from, wide variety of subjects, and
always well put together! I always pick up some new information, and I
especially appreciate speakers who graciously share their forms, reports,
and tips.

I learned so many things at the Symposium...the importance of how to
write a procedure, a new way of looking at quality through Quality Systems
concepts, and ways to be more organized and efficient in the laboratory.

I’m happy to have the CDROM of all the workshops, breakouts, and
general sessions, not just the ones I attended. I hope to return next year.

From check-in, breakfast sessions, lunch,
inspectors, speakers, every single second has been just wonderful. I can't
tell you how much it meant to be a part of this. I learned so much to take
back and use. "Thank you" just doesn't seem good enough - I will
forever appreciate this.
-
This conference is high quality, fast paced,
and energizing, with high caliber speakers; well worth the cost, with very
up-to-date information.
