Information & Expectations for Presentations

The 2026 SPCP Convention will be held on September 19-21, 2026 in Phoenix, AZ. All presenters must attend in-person.

This year, we will be offering 4 course-style and workshop sessions instead of only traditional 1-hour presentations.

Each of these 4 courses should include a clear objective and defined learning outcomes, which will be featured on the SPCP Convention website.

Each course should incorporate hands-on practice on skins as well as a live or recorded demonstration.

Terms & Conditions

  • Applications must include:

    • Course Title

    • Course objectives & learning outcomes

    • Course Teaser (under 250 words)

  • Each course should incorporate hands-on practice on skins as well as a live or recorded demonstration.

  • PowerPoints, handouts, and videos must be submitted to the SPCP office, no later than four weeks prior to the convention. PowerPoints will be downloaded onto the event laptop. All handouts are bound together, so it is very important handouts are not delayed.

  • Presenters shall submit any equipment needs to the SPCP office not less than four weeks prior to the event date. The SPCP reserves the right to deny a request for equipment based upon cost or availability.

  • Presenters must obtain a written informed consent for the presentation of slides or photographs of clients, patients, or other individuals unless the image is such that the individual person is unrecognizable. All materials must be owned or have obtained permission for their use. The SPCP assumes no liability if failed to do so.

  • There are to be no changes in the agreed upon presentation, unless cleared with the SPCP office. Print materials will remain unchanged once submitted.

  • The presentation will be recorded and photographed and may be offered on the SPCP Learning Portal for continuing education purposes, in full or in part, available to members only. The presenter will not receive compensation for the advertising, sale, or distribution of material. Attendees may be using electronic devices for note taking and these devices may also have audio recording capabilities of which SPCP is unaware and does not allow. All attempts will be made to stop this.

  • There are separate guidelines for procedure demonstrations if presenting a procedure.

  • The presenter is responsible for booking and paying for all travel and hotel accommodations.

  • The presenter must consent to the terms & conditions.
