2026 Joint Accreditation Leadership Summit

Building Teams that Sustain and Inspire

The 12th annual Joint Accreditation Leadership Summit™ is your dedicated space to connect, collaborate, and lead the future of interprofessional continuing education (IPCE). This year, we’re thrilled to gather in person—alongside ACCME’s Learn to Thrive meeting—creating a one-of-a-kind opportunity for our community to come together, share best practices, and celebrate the power of team-based learning.

The goal of Joint Accreditation’s annual summit is to bring together jointly accredited providers as leaders of interprofessional continuing education (IPCE), celebrate our achievements, and discuss strategies and best practices on our ascent toward collaborative education.
