When it comes to healthcare, not everything can be taught in a course or on the job. As a travel nurse or allied healthcare clinician, it’s important for you to seek out new learning opportunities and meet new people who work in your field in order to fully grasp the ever-changing landscape of your profession. That’s where healthcare conferences come in handy—these events welcome likeminded people from all over the country and globe, acting as a single space for everyone to network and share ideas. We’re planning on making our way to some top-tier medical conferences in 2025—read on for the top four healthcare conferences in 2025 that you should consider attending.
1. TravCon
TravCon is one of the premier healthcare conferences in 2025 for travel nurses and allied health clinicians. This event, which is scheduled for September 21–24, 2025 at the Paris Hotel in Las Vegas, Nevada, is the largest traveling healthcare conference in the United States and offers attendees opportunities to network, attend keynotes from storied speakers, and even earn continuing education (CE) credits.
The event in years’ past has welcomed over 130 exhibitors (including Barton Healthcare Staffing), providing a seamless experience for travel clinicians who are looking to connect with staffing agencies for work.
In 2025, TravCon is expected to hold a variety of events for its attendees, including traveler roundtable sessions; expert lunch & learns; stations for tweaking your resume; BLS, ACLS, and PALS certification renewals; networking events; and even yoga. It’s not all business though, there are also after parties and receptions planned for its exhibitors and attendees.
2. Yankee Dental Congress
If you’re a traveling dental hygienist (or even a dentist), Yankee Dental Congress is the medical conference in 2025 for you. This prestigious event will be held from January 30 to February 1, 2025 at the Boston Convention & Exhibition Center and features opportunities for dental professionals to network, learn, and earn CE credits.
Now in its 50th year, Yankee Dental Congress’ main draw is its CE courses conducted by the industry’s top experts. Some of the CE courses available to attendees in 2025 are “Dental Implants Basics and Maintenance,” “Leveraging Artificial Intelligence in Dental Diagnosis and Treatment Planning,” and much, much more.
Yankee Dental Congress also has a solid slate of speakers for this 2025 healthcare conference, and even corporate forums, student debates, and more that a dental professional can sink their teeth into.
3. Radiological Society of North America (RSNA) Annual Meeting
Calling all travel medical imaging clinicians! The Radiological Society of North America (RSNA) annual meeting is happening from November 30 to December 4, 2025 at McCormick Place in Chicago, Illinois, and is the perfect place for radiology and medical imaging professionals to gather and share ideas.
While the 2025 schedule of events have not been finalized as of December 2024, this event in years’ past has included educational courses, scientific sessions, industry presentations, and much more that will enhance your knowledge of the field.
Like all of the other healthcare conferences in 2025 on this list, the RSNA annual meeting is also a great opportunity for allied health clinicians to network with one another. Keep an eye out for BHS, as we’re planning on attending this event as an exhibitor—find us and we can chat about the booming travel allied health industry and why you should consider taking a travel assignment with us!
4. NurseCon at Sea
The medical conferences in 2025 featured on this list blend a mix of professionalism and fun, but no event does this better than NurseCon at Sea! That’s right—this travel nurse conference is held on a cruise ship and in 2025, the event is heading to the Bahamas from April 7–11.
While this medical conference does include your standard fare of speakers and opportunities to earn continuing nursing education (CNE) credits, what really sets NurseCon at Sea apart from the others is its fun programming for attendees. In fact, there are three theme nights scheduled in 2025, as well as fun interactive games like Nurse Feud and Nurses Got Talent.
While the day aboard NurseCon at Sea is mostly about earning CNEs, at night, the cruise ship turns into one big party. Meet some fellow nurses on board and expand your horizons as you travel the high seas!
