Ready to chart your next career move in regulatory affairs? Whether you're early in your journey or building momentum mid-career, this event was made for you. Join us in person to explore RAPS' newest certification program and hear from regulatory professionals across career stages — how they've navigated pivots, pursued credentials, and built careers with real purpose.

Hemant Patel will explain the RAPS Foundational Regulatory Affairs (FRA) exam process and other career development resources RAPS offers. Additionally, he will introduce a panel of regulatory professionals across career stages for an engaging conversation. Expect real stories — the pivots, the unexpected opportunities, the moments that changed the direction of a career. You'll hear how regulatory affairs has opened doors into a wide range of disciplines and specialties and have plenty of time to ask the questions that matter most to you. You’ll leave knowing exactly what's out there and how to make it work for you.
We'll also spend time on the practical side of career growth — exploring different ways to map your path, identifying where opportunities tend to surface, and talking through how your regulatory expertise can be a genuine differentiator as you build your options.
This is a relaxed, conversational setting designed for connection. Whether you leave with a new contact, a new certification on your radar, or simply a clearer sense of where you want to go next — we think you'll be glad you came.
