From the President

Join GAPA at the luxurious Westin Resort & Spa for our nationally attended 34th Annual CME Convention & Exhibition. This is the perfect summer vacation for you and your family!

You won´t want to miss a minute of this exciting convention as more than 600 of your colleagues from across the country gather for one of the most prestigious PA conventions in the country.

By popular demand, we have increased our offering of hands-on workshops to 23 – they will be presented by the best instructors in the country, and we have scheduled the event to beat the back-to-school rush!

Choose from over 60 up-to-the minute educational sessions that span a variety of specialties and practice disciplines. Plus, to help you prepare for NCCPA certification and recertification, session topics in most of the exam categories will be offered.

Whether your interest is education or relaxation, we guarantee you an enjoyable time this summer.

See you at the beach!
