When will the recorded sessions be up?

The recorded sessions are up! You can receive CE from the recorded sessions two different ways.

  • Our CE partner is working on creating links for each session. You will simply watch the session, click the link, type in your information. It will automatically link to your existing conference transcript.
  • If you would like to go ahead and view the sessions prior to the links being up, that is okay too. We will be sending a report to IU and they will be able to update your transcript to reflect those credits. 


Welcome to the 2020 Contraceptive Technology Conference! The conference will be presented on a virtual platform but will still offer the speaker engagement and peer interactions you expect at an in person conference. The virtual platform offers the added benefit of extended access to CE opportunities as well. Presentations will offered live to allow for audience interaction, but will also be available for six months after the conference, allowing you to attend concurrent sessions at a later date.

We’ll bring you up-to-date evidence, explore the most puzzling issues, debate hot topics of the day, and offer practical solutions to your most common clinical dilemmas. You’ll experience a variety of teaching styles: interactive case study discussions, faculty panel debates, plenary sessions and concurrent workshops. Plus, our authors and faculty invite you to have discussions with them: to answer your questions, to talk through some of your knotty clinical issues, to discuss the future of the field, and whatever you find helpful. 

Attendee Opportunities

  • 47 eligible CE credits (commensurate with participation in both the regular conference and the Pre-conference sessions): Sessions will be available for 6 months after the conference to provide greater access to CE opportunities.
  • Conference attendees will receive a 30% off discount code to purchase the 21st edition of the book, Contraceptive Technology. You will receive ordering instructions with your registration email confirmation.
