2026 Principles of GI for the NP and PA Course
Overview
Designed for the way GI care really works, the Principles of GI for the NP and PA Course equips NPs and PAs to thrive as key members of the GI care team. Through guideline‑driven, case‑based education, you’ll explore core and emerging GI topics — from IBD and cancer screening to GERD, obesity and nutrition, the microbiome, and MAFLD/MASH — with a clear focus on practical decision‑making in real clinic settings.
Join fellow APPs and expert faculty to learn, connect, and return to practice aligned, confident, and ready to deliver guideline‑driven care that makes an impact.
Support for this educational program was provided by an educational grant from Johnson & Johnson and Takeda.
