About the conference
Over the years, the Faculty of Physician Associate’s conference has offered PAs tailored educational content and support and the opportunity to come together and celebrate the achievements of the profession.
Whilst we recognise that the faculty will be dissolving at the end of the year, we are thrilled to be hosting one final conference in December 2024. The programme has been developed by PAs for PAs and will help you advance your knowledge across all 18 areas of clinical practice.
We hope you will join us at the home of PA education for the final time.

How to record CPD on ePortfolio
You must only claim and record CPD that you have
actually watched online or attended in-person.
For each session, you will be required to reflect on your learning
and complete a reflection form. You can upload your attendance certificate (which is valued up to 22 CPD credits) as
evidence.
Self-certifying CPD
If you watched the early release contents online, these are
not verifiable CPD. You can still self-certify and record the CPD on your
ePortfolio as unverifiable CPD when completing your reflection form.
Guidance on how to record CPD on the ePortfolio is available on the help tab once you have logged in to your ePortfolio account.
