Our Annual Meeting program is built through a competitive abstract submission process. We rely on professionals across all specialties to submit abstracts for consideration. If fewer abstracts are submitted from a particular specialty, there will be fewer presentations in that area. All submissions are peer-reviewed by the Program Task Force and Guest Reviewers, and approximately half are accepted each year. In addition to selecting high-quality proposals, we aim to create a balanced program that represents a range of disciplines and topics of interest to our multidisciplinary audience.
If you would like to see more content from your specialty, we strongly encourage you to submit an abstract or invite colleagues in your field to do so for next year’s meeting. Your participation plays an important role in shaping the program.
ACPA is accredited by the Accreditation Council for Continuing Medical Education and the American Nurses Credentialing Center, approved by the American Speech-Language-Hearing Association, and recognized by the American Dental Association Continuing Education Recognition Program to provide accredited continuing education for physicians, nurses, speech-language pathologists, audiologists, and dentists.
We offer participant certificates and transcripts for all other learners. Psychologists, social workers, and dietitians may be able to use a participant certificate to request credit through their state licensing board, as some boards accept activities as self-study or independent learning.
Because requirements vary by profession and state, we recommend confirming eligibility with your state licensing or credentialing board.
While we are unable to offer livestreaming at the Annual Meeting, we offer a Recorded Sessions Pass as an alternative for those who are unable to attend in person. Individuals registered for the Recorded Sessions Pass will receive an email with access instructions approximately two weeks after the meeting, when recordings from the meeting become available for on-demand viewing.
ACPA collects limited information, including name, address, and email, to administer educational activities and award continuing education credits. Learner data is shared only with accrediting bodies when required for credit reporting. ACPA maintains appropriate safeguards to protect personal information and complies with applicable privacy laws. We do not share your information with supporters and exhibitors unless you “opt in” on your registration form.
