Missed out on CSM 2016?

The TSPTA has you covered. Greg and Maggie had the opportunity to attend CSM in Anaheim, California and have compiled a list of highlights you should know about.


#1 -This conference is way bigger than you could imagine. This year, attendance reached over 11,000 students and professionals. Networking opportunities are abundant, and there is a high chance of meeting a future employer or mentor!
#2 - You get the opportunity to meet some seriously cool people, for instance Stephania Bell from ESPN.
Presenters at CSM are all well-known physical therapists with incredible insight in every specialty you can think of, and all are very personable and approachable.


#3 -Interested in pursuing a residency or fellowship after you graduate? CSM offers a Residency Meet & Greet where residency/fellowship programs from around the country are all in one room for you to ask questions and get to know their program. Talk about convenience!
#4 -DISNEY!!! On some off time, you can explore the city you’re in, and we were lucky enough to be in walking distance of the happiest place on earth!

#5 -The continuing education courses at CSM cover LITERALLY every topic you could imagine. From courses such as Aquatic Neurorehabilitation Across the Lifespan, Symmetry with Limb Loss: Maximizing Function After Amputation , and Success in Private Practice, CSM has something interesting for everyone.
#6 -Exhibit Hall. Free stuff (including tennis shoes) and peak opportunity to network!!. Need we say more? We may or may not have collected over 150 pens.

               
P.S. CSM 2017 will be in San Antonio, TX! Don’t miss out on the opportunity to attend this amazing conference in your home state! Stay tuned for updates!
