Join us for the 2025 Annual Licensing Seminar!

NARA is hosting the 2025 Seminar as a hybrid event, including both an in-person component

in Norfolk, VA and a virtual component which features access to pre-recorded and live-streamed

sessions including one (1) live session in each time block and all keynote presentations.

All attendees will have access to recorded workshop sessions for approximately three (3) months post Seminar. This year's theme, “Anchored in Excellence: Improving the Lives of Others”
highlights the commitment of regulatory professionals to prioritize protection through
prevention even amid waves of change. We invite you to join us in Norfolk or online and
be part of the conversation and collaboration at the 2025 NARA Annual Licensing Seminar.
