There will be four days of informative sessions (plenary and hands-on breakout) that will provide you with educational and networking opportunities needed for continued professional development as an allied health care provider in orthopaedics.
We hope you will plan join the us and the National Association of Orthopaedic Technologists (NAOT) for the second Annual Joint Meeting. The last joint meeting attracted over 425 attendees from throughout North America and abroad to Minneapolis for four days of top-level educational programming.

Here's what attendees said about ASOPA/NAOT 2008:
“Very well organized with exceptional academic presentations and very congenial participants. The Board rocks! The exhibitors were awesome as well as their products. I have practiced as a PA-C for 33 years and have not been to a better meeting! Outstanding Job by all concerned!!!!”
“I have been in health care over half my life. My first workday back I was able to put to use my new talents thanks.”
“I had a great time and learned a lot. I also met a lot of people of various specialties and learned what their doing at other practices.”
“Really enjoyed the ability to interact with both associations.”
“I thought that this conference was quite useful to my practice and there was a wide range of topics which I liked. I think that more hands on courses would be nice (surgical prep course, aseptic technique course). Overall I enjoyed the conference and will plan on attending again.” |
