2023 | Spring Symposium

If you weren’t able to join us in-person, our sessions were recorded and offered on KAPA's website after the event, so that you won't miss your favorite talks, while still maximizing CME for your money! KAPA offered 8 hours of recorded sessions after the symposium. Conference recordings will be made available to attendees at no additional cost for 1 year.
To get your certificate, please complete the evaluations and we will email your certificate within 30 days of completion. For more information, contact KAPA Headquarters at
