Collaboration sessions, knowledge sharing and the RA community
Where to go to ask questions and get involved in discussions about the Registration Authority role.
Feature Focus
Feature Focus is a regular online session to update Registration Authorities on the latest Care Identity Service developments. The sessions are usually run on Tuesday and Thursday mornings, and take place over Microsoft Teams.
Identity and Access Management Roadshow
These take place around 4 times per year. Invites go to all Registration Authority managers with a valid email address in the Care Identity Service. When the next roadshow is coming up we also announce it on our news page.
NHS Networks
NHS Networks is a free resource for anyone working in or with the health and care sector to use to share information, network with others and keep up to date with news. Join the discussion now.
