The all-new Current Concepts in Pediatric Advanced Practice Conference commences in 2023 which marks the 3nd anniversary of Children’s Hospital of Philadelphia’s innovative Advanced Practice Provider Conference. This one-of-a-kind conference is packed with dynamic speakers and wide variety of topics related to all aspects of pediatric advanced practice including innovations in medical management and professional development strategies as well as leadership and topics for managers.

Three distinct program tracks: Acute Care, Ambulatory/Primary Care and Managing APPs, allow attendees to tailor their experience based on their interests. Virtual opportunities for interactive learning and professional networking will augment the didactic components of the sessions. After the live virtual conference, attendees have the opportunity to view presentations from any of the three program tracks for additional contact hours.
