This programme, imagined many years ago by previous Boards of Management, was brought back to life by board member Sudhir Dhavan. It is only possible due to the support of the IELA Board of Management, the Education & Training Working Group, and the countless member volunteers who have devoted their time and resources to make it a reality. This is their legacy. A special note of gratitude to Sudhir Dhavan and the IELA Education & Training Working Group for his invaluable contribution in making this project a reality!
