Disney Coronado Springs Conference Center, Orlando, Florida,

The mission of the NAEMSE is to “To Inspire Excellence in EMS Education, and lifelong learning”.

How is this accomplished by the leadership of NAEMSE? The answer is by annually providing the best EMS educational symposium & trade show!  In recognition of today’s state of economy we are offering our attendees the same registration rate as last year! We are hoping that with no increase to the registration fees more EMS educators will be able to participate in this valuable educational event. As you prepare your budget for this year please note the following:

• Discounted room rates at Disney’s Coronado Springs Resort $139.00 per night (single/double).  This room rate is available three days pre and post symposium, so take advantage of this savings and plan a family summer vacation.
• Free shuttle transportation to and from the Orlando airport to Coronado Springs Resort via the Disney Magical Express
• Discounted Theme Park Tickets available pre and post symposium for three days
• Two lunches during exhibit hours
• Special NAEMSE Night at EPCOT at the Isle of France for the IllumiNations Spectacular with refreshments!
