Choosing among congresses & annual meetings

Find the sessions that fit your goal

A congress usually runs several sessions at once. Read the programme to see which days cover shoulder, elbow or both, and whether instructional courses or workshops need a separate registration.

Check deadlines that differ by category

Member, non-member, trainee and accompanying-person rates may follow different deadlines. Note the category you qualify for and the date it closes, and keep the organizer’s confirmation.

Read the credit statement at the source

Only count continuing-education credit that the official source states, including the accrediting body and amount, and confirm it is accepted by your own licensing or certification body.

The organizer’s official page is always the authority for dates, fees, eligibility and availability. See the related planning guide for a fuller checklist.

Common questions

How many congresses & annual meetings are listed?

44 listings as of this build: 31 upcoming or announced and 13 concluded. Concluded editions stay visible as an archive and do not imply that a new edition has been announced.

Is a congress the same as a hands-on course?

Not necessarily. Congresses are mainly scientific programmes. Practical sessions, where offered, may be optional add-ons with their own registration and eligibility, so read the programme.

Can I register through ShoulderElbowCourses?

No. Each listing links to the organizer’s official page, which handles enrolment, payment, refunds, attendance and certificates.
