More information regarding this year's Student Conclave: 

 

Student Conclave is created and designed for students by students. This is not going to be another Zoom call that we are sick of by now, rather it will be on a platform called Streamyard as we have partnered with Dr. Jimmy McKay, host of the hit podcast PT Pintcast, to curate a new conference experience and provide the best possible opportunity for engagement between SPTs, SPTAs, speakers, sponsors, and more.

 

A preview of what the day will look like: 

*        Welcome and APTA NC Board of Directors Introductions

*        Advocacy for SPTs and SPTAs

*        Physical Therapy Practice in the Emergency Department

*        Adapting Physical Therapy Management in Acute Care for Patients with COVID-19 

*        Now What: Atypical Avenues in Physical Therapy

*        Diagnostic Imaging: Now vs. Future

*        Destination Rehab: Taking PT Outside A Four-Wall Clinic  

*        Closing Comments

 

Early bird registration is open now until March 1st. Early bird tickets are $20 for APTA members and $30 for Non-APTA members. Once March 1st rolls around, tickets jump up to $25 for ATPA Members and $35 for Non-APTA Members. 

 

Additional opportunities throughout the Conclave include:

*        Networking opportunities with students, current PTs/PTAs, and our sponsors

*        Advocacy opportunities to promote the betterment of the profession

*        Community service opportunities to support local food banks and Special Olympics of North Carolina

*        Opportunities to enter sweepstakes for various gift cards and other tangible goods

*        Access to our Virtual Trivia Night 

*        Additional learning and connection opportunities 

More specific information to come on the Virtual Trivia Night and service events including a Virtual 5K with t-shirts benefitting the NC Special Olympics and food drive benefiting local food banks! You do not want to miss out on this year’s Student Conclave! I promise you that!
