01 Overview
The iaedp Foundation holds its 2027 Annual Global Symposium February 18 to 20, 2027, at the Marriott Marquis Chicago. The theme is "From Evidence to Implementation: Closing the Research-Practice Gap." Optional workshops carry their own CE counts: the Body Project and two temperament-based and DBT workshops are 6 CEs each, and an evening panel is 1.5 CEs. A Level 2 temperament-based therapy training (18 CEs) follows at a separate venue.
US in-person rates are $750 for members and $975 for non-members through January 10, 2027. They rise to $900 and $1,225 until February 12, and to $950 and $1,275 on site. Students pay $500 to $675. Single-practitioner practices get lower rates, and international attendees pay by country zone.
