Talking about the IOR being shortlisted, IOR President Lisa-Jayne Cook FInstR said "We're delighted that the IOR STEM Toolkit has been shortlisted for an ACR News Award in the Training Initiative category! This fantastic resource empowers IOR STEM Ambassadors to highlight RACHP careers in a fun and engaging way.
