NPA invests heavily in the development of PACE professionals to support its strategic goals of high-quality care provision and PACE value and quality. These efforts translate into educational opportunities for PACE staff and leadership that include three annual conferences and online courses throughout the year.
The National PACE Association (NPA) offers professional meetings throughout the year. Held annually are the NPA Spring Policy Forum, the NPA Summer Conference (log-in required), and the NPA Annual Conference in the fall.
Registration is now open for the 2018 NPA Summer Conference, which will be held June 1-3 in Indianapolis. A Medical Director Essentials Course and Quality Symposium will be held on Friday, June 1, and a Clinical Symposium will be held on Saturday and Sunday, June 2-3.
The room rate at the conference hotel, the Indianapolis Marriott Downtown, is $189 single/double. This discounted rate is available until May 10.
Log into the NPA website to register for the conference, access the link for hotel reservations, and view sponsorship opportunities on the NPA Summer Conference webpage.
See below for a list of future conferences.
In partnership with Rush University Medical Center, NPA periodically offers Interdisciplinary Teams in PACE, an online training program that integrates academic education with experiential learning.
The PACE Learning Series features monthly teleconferences hosted by NPA on a variety of topics of interest to PACE organizations and their staff.
PACE is a complex model of care that is growing faster than the number of trained or experienced PACE leaders. The need for PACE leadership training opportunities is paramount to the future success of each program and for PACE as a whole. Existing leaders often are promoted or hired prior to developing a solid foundation of skills and competencies needed for effective PACE leadership. To address this issue the National PACE Association, in partnership with On Lok PACEpartners, developed the PACE Leadership Training Program. Log into the website to learn more.
