Please join us at our 48th Annual Conference, held virtually November 6-8, 2026. AET is thrilled to announce that Leah Kuypers, MA Ed., OTR/L, creator of The Zones of Regulation, the globally recognized framework for building lifelong self-regulation skills, will serve as our 2026 keynote speaker! A licensed occupational therapist with a background in education, Leah brings more than two decades of experience supporting learners in both clinical and classroom settings. Her work is grounded in a powerful belief: emotional and behavioral regulation are essential skills that can be explicitly taught. In addition, we promise to offer high-quality breakout sessions on topics such as executive functioning, twice-exceptionality, social-emotional skills, intervention techniques, and case studies. 

This year’s event will again be hosted virtually. We encourage educational therapists, parents, and allied professionals, including, but not limited to: 

  • clinical psychologists
  • licensed clinical social workers
  • marriage and family therapists
  • educational psychologists
  • speech-language pathologists
  • occupational therapists
  • school or learning center directors

Attendees experience quality professional development, networking, and shared learning experiences.

Pricing Notice for International Attendees

To make the AET Annual Conference more accessible to a global audience, AET applies Purchasing Power Parity (PPP) pricing for international registrations. PPP is an economic approach that adjusts prices based on the relative cost of living and average income levels in different countries. This helps create a more inclusive experience for attendees worldwide.

To receive PPP pricing, please contact us at This email address is being protected from spambots. You need JavaScript enabled to view it.. All PPP-adjusted pricing is determined using widely recognized economic data. AET reserves the right to review and verify eligibility for PPP-based pricing to maintain fairness and integrity in the process.
