Virtual vs. In-person 2025
​
-
P-POD's conferences since the 2014 founding have included IN-PERSON days for every year except for the first two COVID-19 pandemic years 2020-2021. Each of the FIVE (see SCHEDULE BELOW) 2025 conference days is offered as a virtual livestream, but the Sunday October 5 one is expected to become northeast U.S. in-person with virtual option. See its agenda HERE.
-
The VIRTUAL conference days in the price lists represent LIVE ACCESS during their stated dates, and this is what is recognized by accreditors for CE purposes. As an additional courtesy, free access to recordings of the presentations after they are ready is provided to registrants for a few months.
These 2025 registrations are not for an on-demand enduring-materials product, but we intend that at a later date we will begin to offer 2024 and 2025 conference presentations as accredited on-demand courses with their own pricing on their own price lists. Note that for a number of continuing education purposes, such as qualification for Lifestyle Medicine Diplomate exams, only live attendance credits are accepted, never on-demand attendance credits.
-
For any P-POD Conference day that is ever offered in-person, MEALS during the conference hours are included in registration prices. Meals are made from plant-based vegan whole foods, without wheat being used as an ingredient, and with no-added-oil options available for each dish.
-
P-POD assumes it has permission to utilize, for promotional and educational purposes, PHOTOGRAPHIC images of the conference proceedings and incidental audience presence, unless prior written notification is received from individual attendees that such permission is withheld with regard to them.

P-FLEX, Choose 2025 Days You Want
Our P-FLEX approach, first introduced in 2024, lets you register for even a single day, or else any combination of the year's days offered, which for 2025 amount to FIVE days (see SCHEDULE ABOVE) and 37 hours of possibilities.
That scheduling FLEXIBILITY lets you choose days to meet many kinds of personal needs you may have, and here are many examples of what you could arrange:
-

NOTE ON RELIGIOUS OBSERVANCES:
-
• If a Friday-sundown-beginning religious Sabbath observance is related to needed avoidance of a Saturday conference day, then the following is a note about Friday timing for the 21-hour packages shown just above...
-
• For U.S. participants who are in the Central time zone (or in Eastern anywhere west of Lansing MI, Cincinnati OH, Lexington KY, Atlanta GA or Tallahassee FL), if you signed out from the conference one hour before it ends on Fri. Sept. 26, you would have completed 4 hours, all before sundown. Therefore you could use the 21-hour packages above to achieve 20 continuing education hours without conflicting with your Sabbath.
-
• Individuals farther west (Mountain time zone, Pacific time zone etc.) could complete all 5 Friday P-POD hours before sundown, thus can earn all 21 hours without conflict.
-
-
AVOID ALL WEEKDAYS:
