One of the major objectives of the STCA is to provide ongoing opportunities for information exchange on tobacco in Scotland. To this end the STCA regularly organises tobacco-related events to supplement the weekly STCA Bulletin and other communications.
Topics for seminars and conferences originate from the membership, and members are often highly involved in organising and implementing STCA events. An Activity Tracker is updated quarterly to encourage member representative involvement.
