2026 AAD Annual Meeting: Global Education Day

Global Educational Day of Dermatology at the 2026 AAD Annual Meeting is an opportunity for international societies who are member organizations of the International League of Dermatological Societies (ILDS) to hold an independent educational session the day before the official start of the AAD Annual Meeting on Thursday, March 26, 2026.
These unique sessions provide international societies with the opportunity to highlight their members’ work and network with fellow dermatologists from around the world.
These sessions may or may not be eligible for continuing medical education credit; offering such is at the sole discretion of the sponsoring organization. NOTE: The AAD does not accredit any Global Education Day Program for continuing medical education credit.
