About

Attend the 2025 CAPCSD Conference to learn, network, and be inspired! Join 600 peers and choose from over 100 breakouts with 200 speakers.

For the past 46 years, our conference has been held in a variety of cities across the United States. It has a reputation for being a leading conference in speech-language pathology and audiology education. Faculty and staff in speech and hearing departments throughout the nation and abroad benefit from the opportunity to collaborate, connect, explore, and learn together about issues unique to our discipline.

The 2023 CAPCSD conference in Orlando and 2024 CAPCSD conference in New Orleans were great successes, and the evaluations were outstanding. The 2025 conference is being built on the success of the 2024 New Orleans conference, using your feedback to create a vibrant, engaging event where you can learn and exchange ideas with your colleagues.

We also look forward to seeing our friends - the sponsors and exhibitors in this face-to-face environment.
