Presenter Information 2027
Registration
In addition to covering the cost of CEU applications, presenters receive a registration discount. The discount is a savings of approximately $200 off the regular 2-day rate! A discount code will be sent via email to each presenter upon acceptance of the proposal.
CEUs
The final conference program will list the CEUs awarded to each session. The conference mobile app, available prior to the conference, will have session descriptions and presenter bios.
CHIA applies for CEUs for each session. However, the accrediting bodies determine if credits are applicable. If your session does not get approved for CEUs, please contact the specific accrediting body to inquire about the reason.
