The Oklahoma Academy of Physician Assistants 52nd Annual Fall CME Conference will once again follow the hybrid format offering the option to earn CME through live presentations, virtual streaming and the On-Demand Library.
The OAPA conference is designed to provide you with the most valuable educational program with dynamic speakers who will assist PAs in their ongoing efforts to remain current with medical knowledge, clinical skills, and health care issues. More than that, the OAPA Conference provides you the opportunity to catch-up or meet new colleagues.

CME Credit
The program is not yet approved for CME credit. Conference organizers plan to request 25 hours of AAPA Category I CME credit. An additional 16 hours of Category I CME will be available through the BLS/PALS/ACLS workshops, and new this year, The Art of Medicine – A Warrior Profession workshop.
The program will include the required Oklahoma State Board of Medical Licensure and Supervision one-hour Category I CME on the topic of substance abuse.
CME Logging
OAPA members registered for the conference and who have completed the session evaluation for each lecture attended will have their CME hours logged automatically with the Oklahoma Board of Medical Licensure.
The OAPA will once again participate in the NCCPA CME Conference Logging System. This is an added benefit to significantly simplify the logging process with NCCPA. Participants will receive a unique link to a list of conference activities on your certification page. This will be a point-and-click approach, and credits logged this way are NOT subject to the NCCPA AUDIT because they are already confirmed by the OAPA.

Be sure to collect exhibitor tickets at each exhibit booth to be entered into drawings for exciting gifts! Name badges must be worn in the convention center.
