Welcome from the SIOP Preconference Workshop Chair, Kelsey Klausing, MS
The SIOP preconference workshops are an exceptional professional development opportunity conveniently offered the day of the Opening Plenary on Wednesday, April 29, 2026. They offer an opportunity to learn from experts in the field and to network with peers. The workshops focus on trending and critical topics in our field and are a great source for continuing education credits.
Thank you to the 2025-2026 Workshop Committee.

Never participated in an in-person workshop before? Here’s what you need to know:
- Preconference workshops are interactive. Participants are provided with opportunities to network throughout the day, interacting with experts in the topic area and others who face similar challenges at work.
- Registration for each workshop session is capped at 40 attendees to ensure an intimate setting, so we encourage you to register early before they fill up.
- Registrants will be given access to the presentation materials website for all 10 workshops, not just the one(s) for which they register. Details for accessing presentations will be shared with registrants closer to the workshop date.
