'Working with the Emotional Impact of Infertility' The BICA Members who have acted as Trainers for these workshops across the country for the last 2 years are happy to run these sessions either on site with participants coming from one clinic or in central areas (such as London Manchester Birmingham) as cluster training sessions. They have been particularly valuable for staff members dealing with the emotional impact of infertility whether they be clinical, scientific or administrative. The main areas we have covered are the issues of grief and loss, breaking bad news and enhancing listening skills.

The courses are non-profit making.
