FCAAP Forum Series

With the rapidly changing landscape and frequent presentation of new challenges during the COVID-19 pandemic, FCAAP created the FCAAP Forum Series. The series offered specialized training sessions on current, topical information to help pediatric professionals continue to succeed in their goal to provide the best care possible. Beginning with weekly interactive sessions and transforming into a hybrid of on-demand and live discussions, the Forum Series evolved with the needs of Florida’s providers. Since its inception in the spring of 2020, the FCAAP Forum Series has drawn participation from nearly 800 healthcare providers.

Although the series will not be continued in 2024, the archived sessions from the series between 2020 and 2023 are available for on-demand viewing. Learn more about each year of the series and access the archived sessions below.

2023 FCAAP Forum Series


The Spring 2020, Fall 2020, and 2021 forum series focused on COVID-19, its impact on the medical community, and how healthcare workers could stay safe and provide the best care for Florida’s children. The 2022 forum series focused on practice management, offering the specialty series – entitled Practice Perfect: Strategies for Perfecting the Business of Pediatrics, which brought together some of the best industry experts to cover topics vital to practitioners seeking to maximize their success in the pediatric business market.

Due to the success of the first three years of the forum series, FCAAP continued the series with on-demand educational presentations and live, interactive discussion groups with industry experts. The 2023 series offers four focus areas: Practice Culture, Immunizations, Professional Development, and Advocacy.

Recorded sessions of the 2023 FCAAP Forum Series can be watched here.

2022 FCAAP Practice Management Series
Practice Perfect: Strategies for Perfecting the Business of Pediatrics


The popular FCAAP Forum Series returned in 2022 through our Practice Management Series titled “Practice Perfect: Strategies for Perfecting the Business of Pediatrics”. Books, articles, and websites about running small businesses are everywhere, but pediatric-specific content can be hard to find. That’s why FCAAP brought together some of the best industry experts to cover topics vital to practitioners seeking to maximize their success in the pediatric business market.”
