- More sessions than ever — 400 total!
- Earlier wrap-up at 3:30 p.m., so you have time for networking, exhibits, and Anaheim evenings.

First #APTACSM in the books! Had such a blast networking with so many people and expanding my knowledge even more! Left Boston yesterday so inspired.

The conference itself was such an incredible experience. I had so much fun trying new tools and learning about different techniques. I have so many new memories that I will always cherish, and I can’t wait to go back again next year! See you later APTA CSM…… 😉❤️
