The AREMA 2026 Annual Conference & Expo offers the best education, regardless of your experience level: everyone can learn from the more than 60 Technical Presentations offered. Discover how to respond to an emergency, learn about new technologies, and hear from industry experts in your area of expertise, including, but not limited to inspections, automation, and artificial intelligence. This event provides the latest insights and best practices that impact your educational growth and future in the industry.

Conference attendees may earn up to 12+ Professional Development Hours (subject to their state's approval) towards achieving or maintaining their certifications. 

Missed a presentation? The in-person technical presentations will be available On Demand after the conference. Free access is included with the Conference Registration fee (excluding Day Passes and Spouse/Guest Fee). The On Demand content provides another way to earn Professional Development Hours.
