Our Signature Can’t-Miss Event of the Year 

March 12-15, 2026  | Manchester Grand Hyatt, San Diego

There’s a place where nurse practitioners gather each year to access the latest information on issues affecting the health care industry. A place where ideas are shared and solutions are born. A place where thought-provoking educational sessions and spirit-firing social events are the order of the day. Every day.

That place is the California Association for Nurse Practitioners (CANP) Annual Educational Conference, and it’s where you’ll want to be.

The CANP Conference is the largest gathering of nurse practitioners on the West Coast, and it’s the source for news and updates on topics that include: current health care issues, pending legislation, practice-enhancing strategies, the future of the industry, and more. 

Each year, this event draws more than 600 health care professionals who come together to glean information and exchange ideas. Whatever your role in the health care arena — nurse practitioner, physician’s assistant, nurse midwife, nurse anesthetist, or student — you can find everything you need to educate and enlighten you at this single location.

Exhibitors and Sponsors

The CANP conference offers sponsors and exhibitors an unparalleled opportunity to meet the professionals who are seeking solutions to the challenges they face day after day. They want to discover the products, services, and technologies that will help take their practices to the next level and make the health care environment more efficient, beneficial, and fulfilling. Quite simply, they want to know what you know. And building relationships doesn’t get any more straightforward than that.
