Education Partners

ACR Convergence, the ACR's annual meeting, is the premier meeting for rheumatology professionals worldwide. Rheumatology professionals report the meeting is inspirational and energizing; however, they also report it is a challenge to absorb all the key content. To address this challenge, the ACR seeks quality education partners to help share and reinforce ACR Convergence content year-round.

The American College of Rheumatology is the leading authority and trusted partner of rheumatology professionals. By providing comprehensive education to improve the knowledge, competence, and performance of those who treat/care for patients with/at risk for musculoskeletal diseases as well as systemic autoimmune disorders – the ACR empowers rheumatology professionals to excel in their specialty. We look forward to collaborating with you to improve patient outcomes through education.
