The annual American College of Emergency Physicians (ACEP) conference is set to take place from September 7 through September 10, in Salt Lake City, Utah. Certain immersive-education experiences begin on September 5 and 6, so be sure to plan a bit ahead of the conference to not miss those.
Packed with networking opportunities, diverse learning experiences, and the world’s largest emergency medicine (EM) exhibit hall, ACEP25 is an exciting time for EM professionals to reconnect after a year of hard work.
The following educational courses at the ACEP 2025 annual conference are focused on anesthesia. The schedule is accurate as of July 25, 2025. Consult the official schedule for the most up-to-date information regarding times and availability.

Ultrasound-Guided Regional and Joint Anesthesia for the Emergency MEdicine Physician: A Starter Kit
- 1:30 PM – 6:00 PM
- Description: Enhance your ED pain management skills with cutting-edge ultrasound-guided techniques! This hands-on workshop will equip you with essential multimodal analgesia approaches, including regional anesthesia and joint injections for common hip, chest, upper extremity, and joint complaints. After brief, high-impact didactic sessions, you'll dive into small-group, instructor-led practice on live models for anatomy review and skill-building with nerve block phantoms and meat models. Plus, discover how the PACED Accreditation Program can help you implement and sustain best practices in pain and addiction care in your ED.
