General Workshops

An additional fee will be charged for each optional Workshop. Please note that all workshops are open to physician only. Pre-registration is encouraged for optional meeting programs as these programs tend to reach full enrollment prior to the pre-registration cut-off date. It is recommended to make several choices for each time period of optional meeting programs. Space will be assigned on a first-come, first-serve basis. Refunds will be issued to individuals when optional programs are not available. Waiting lists will be established on-site at the meeting registration desk and efforts will be made to accommodate as many persons as possible in these programs.

Workshop participants must be enrolled in or have graduated from an ACGME-approved residency, or an AOA-approved residency, in anesthesiology or other specialty or have trained in an equivalent non-U.S. program.
