Why You Should Attend the National Practice Conference 2023

Do you want to enhance your risk management skills and connect with leading professionals and colleagues in the field, all while earning live continuing education credits? You'll find that and more at the National Practice Conference 2023 (NPC 2023)!

No other conference provides such a unique blend of legal, clinical and risk management skills in a manner that is aimed solely at the practicing psychologist. Also, several sessions will fulfill requirements for licensure renewal and a 15% premium discount for two consecutive policy periods for Trust policyholders in suicide, risk management and ethics.

Presented by TrustPARMA and the National Register of Health Service Psychologists, NPC is an annual practice-oriented conference that brings together psychologists from all over the country. Held in the nation's capital, NPC focuses on enhancing clinical skills on a high level with renowned experts in many different specialties and focus areas.

Past conferences covered timely issues including chronic pain, suicidal risks, sleep disorders, youth bullying, telepsychology, transgender health, adolescent racial stress, veterans’ healthcare, and overcoming trauma.

Our previous keynoters included Lieutenant General (Retired) Thomas Bostick, Ph.D., PE, NAE; U.S. Congressman Alan Lowenthal, Ph.D. (D-CA); NPR Health Correspondent Rhitu Chatterjee; Social Entrepreneur Andre Hughes; Assistant Secretary for Mental Health and Substance Use Miriam Delphin-Rittmon, Ph.D.; and Executive Director of the VHA Office of Mental Health and Suicide Prevention Tamara Campbell, MD, PsyD, DFAPA—just to name a few.

Testimonials from past NPC attendees:

"I look forward to the conference as I always return with new ideas to implement in the practice, particularly reducing any risks of being open to being reported to the board or avoiding any lawsuits. Thanks for being a "different" type of insurance company. I do not think the other companies go to this extent."

"I have attended all three NPC conferences, and it continues to be one of, if not the best, continuing education events. The organization and high-level programming can't be beat. Thanks for providing such a great conference."

“I have thoroughly enjoyed your conferences thus far in terms of diversity of content, quality of presentations and the way the programs are organized.”
