During this episode of What’s New in APE we will be discussing the 50th National APE conference (NAPEC) that will be held virtually on November 4-6, 2021. Today we have Kathy Russell one of Conference Directors and Dr. Barry Lavay one of the Program Committees chairs to discuss the celebration that is planned to mark the 50th anniversary of this conference, an “Academy of Adapted PE Stars”. Kathy and Barry will briefly discuss the evolution of the conference during the past 50 years. They will then share the decision making that went into having an entirely virtual conference using the SOCIO event platform. Also examined will be the variety of different events and socials planned for conference attendees. Barry and Kathy will share the program that includes some great keynote speakers, as well as over, 50 sessions based on a variety of APE topics with dynamic speakers from all over the country. Even though the conference is virtual conference attendees will have many opportunities to interact with other attendees.
