Branches are heavily involved in professional development, including conducting seminars, workshops and training courses on a wide range of topics. Some branches also provide scholarships for health promotion students or graduates.
Most branches publish a regular state/territory-based newsletter informing members of current activities and discussing relevant local issues.
