The 2019 NRPA Annual Conference is packed full of inspirational and innovative education sessions and

Education Formats

Earn CEUs to Maintain Your Certifications

A variety of session formats allow attendees to choose
what fits their style of learning best - from getting out of
their chairs to be active, spending time outside, interacting
directly with speakers and much more.

Attendees will be able to earn at least 0.1 Continuing
Education Units (CEUs) for attending most education
sessions, and have the potential to earn up to 1.7 CEUs
for 2019. To earn CEUs, attendees must attend the entire
education session. 0.1 CEUs can now be earned for
attending three Speed Sessions. Certain sessions are not
eligible for CEUs which will be indicated in the Conference
App and in the onsite pocket guide.

PARK DEDICATION
Sunday, September 22
2:00 p.m. - 4:00 p.m.
Each year, NRPA renovates a
park in the Conference host
city. This year, NRPA worked
with Baltimore City Parks and Recreation and various
top-rated companies to renovate Catherine ABC Park
in the heart of Charm City. Thanks to the generous
donations of several companies, this revitalized park
will improve the local community and provide them with
a great place for all ages. Join NRPA and the community
for a celebration of this amazing new park. Learn more
