ERI Therapies in the School Conference brings nationally acclaimed speakers to share the latest research and school-based therapy techniques—and their passion for their work—with hundreds of school-based physical therapy professionals, school-based occupational therapy professionals, speech language pathologists and special educators.

Energetic experiential learning, hands-on training, lively panel discussions, premium product showcases and challenging breakout sessions will give you powerful new therapeutic tools and techniques.

Some of the most magical moments at the conference happen outside the classroom. The fun and excitement of making new friends who share your dedication to student care and exploring the vibrant city of Boston will remind you why you love your work and recharge you for the year ahead.

Our annual conference also starts a conversation that continues all year with school discussion groups. Powerful professional development for school-based professionals is a key part of the ERI mission, and school discussion groups provide a forum for therapists and educators to ask questions and share insights online.
