AAP NCE Sessions: What You Need to Know

As a registered attendee of the National Conference (NCE) organized by the American Academy of Pediatrics (AAP), you're probably eager to know more about the various sessions that will be taking place during the event. In this article, we'll provide an overview of AAP NCE sessions, including what they are, who plans and implements them, and when proposals are due.

What Are AAP NCE Sessions?

AAP NCE sessions are specialty programming that are designed to cater to specific interests or needs of registered attendees. These programs are planned and implemented by AAP sections or councils, which are responsible for creating content that is relevant and engaging for their members and general pediatric providers.

Types of AAP NCE Sessions

These sessions can include a range of activities such as awards ceremonies, business meetings, educational content targeted at specific audiences, abstract presentations, and more. Each session has a unique focus and requires attendees to have prior knowledge or interest in the topic area.

Planning and Implementation

AAP sections or councils are responsible for planning and implementing these sessions, with assistance from the National Conference Planning Group (NCPG) and staff. Section/council program chairs work closely with NCPG staff to develop agendas, confirm faculty members, and ensure that the sessions align with the overall goals of the conference.

If you're interested in proposing a session or course for the AAP NCE, here are some important dates to keep in mind:

* November 17, 2023: Deadline to submit section/council program and course requests

* December 2023: Confirmation of section/council program and course requests

* March 1, 2024: Section/council program and course agendas and faculty confirmations due

Core Sessions

The NCPG has designated a number of pre-accepted 'Core Sessions' that will not require submission as new proposals. These sessions have been carefully selected to provide attendees with valuable content and insights.

General Sessions

General sessions are targeted at general pediatricians or pediatric providers, covering clinical or non-clinical pediatric content areas. Proposal notifications for these sessions will be sent out in February 2024, with a deadline for submission of November 17, 2023.

In conclusion, AAP NCE sessions offer attendees a unique opportunity to engage with specialty programming that is tailored to their interests and needs. With key dates and deadlines outlined above, we encourage you to propose your own session or course and be part of this exciting event!
