What to Expect at Your First Eating-Disorder Conference
Attending · 2026-05-05
New to professional conferences? Here is exactly what a two-day interdisciplinary CE conference looks like — from the keynote to the Book Fair — so your first one feels easy.
The short answer
A two-day CE conference like Nura opens with registration and a keynote, moves into concurrent breakout sessions you choose from, and includes meals, a networking hour, and a Book Fair. You attend the sessions that fit your work, complete a short evaluation, and receive your continuing-education hours. In person or online, the rhythm is the same.
How the two days flow
Day one typically begins with the opening keynote, then splits into breakout tracks so you can follow the topics most relevant to you, with lunch and networking built in. Day two continues with featured and breakout sessions and a closing that wraps up the CE. The detailed schedule and session catalog go to registered attendees as they are finalized.
How to get the most out of it
Skim the agenda ahead of time and star the sessions you cannot miss. Say hello to the person next to you — most attendees are hoping someone will. Visit the Book Fair and exhibit hall. And keep your CE evaluation handy so your hours are documented before you leave.
