I need special accommodations, what do I do?
If you need to request special accommodations, please email conference@feedingmatters.org by February 1, 2026.
Where can I view speaker disclosures?
Once confirmed, speaker disclosures will be posted on our conference landing page here.
How do I get accreditation for the IPFDC?
Accreditation updates will be posted once the event is registered. If you are looking for continuing education credits, you must purchase the Professional Ticket Package (with CEUs). If you are a parent of a child who also needs CEUs or an attendee who needs financial support please email conference@feedingmatters.org.
All accrediting bodies require the completion of a post-event survey. You will not receive a certificate of completion if you do not complete the end of event survey. Surveys must be completed within 3 weeks of the event end date due to the reporting regulations we adhere to. Submitting your end of event survey initiates our internal verification process where a team member confirms your hours of attendance, the completion of your survey, and emails you a certificate with corresponding hours. This process takes around 2-3 weeks from the time you submit your survey.
I’m not a healthcare provider, is this conference for me?
Yes! Our conference is tailored to both families and professionals. Our planning committee included parents and providers who ensure the inclusion of sessions to help caretakers better understand the complex nature of pediatric feeding disorder, how to collaborate with providers, questions to ask and knowledge gained is instrumental is building the confidence needed to guide a child with PFD. As an added support this year caregivers will see a family learning objective for each session offered.
