  1. Be apprised of current trends in the epidemiology of TB in Canada and throughout the world
  2. Be aware of current techniques and technology in diagnosis, management and treatment
  3. Identify strategies to improve prevention, service delivery, clinical practice and accessibility
  4. Engage in active dialogue with expert TB researchers, clinicians and decision makers
