The Disciplinary Conference

Next Conference - 5th February 2010

The 11th Disciplinary Conference will be taking place on Friday 5th February 2010 following the success of our previous conferences.

The 'Disciplinary Conference' is the premier conference dedicated to professionals working in the sphere of professional regulation and from small roots has grown from strength to strength.

The Disciplinary Conference was first held in Gray’s Inn in 1999 and has been an annual event ever since. The majority of those attending represent the major professional institutions (see ‘Participating Institutions’). In addition to the institutions many of those attending are involved in professional discipline, predominantly Barristers and Solicitors who do Professional Negligence work.
