HTM professionals attending the upcoming HTM Mixer Northwest will have the opportunity to earn up to 4 CEUs approved by ACI during the two-day event, scheduled for July 31-August 1, 2026, at the Hyatt Regency Bellevue in the Seattle metropolitan area.
The event has officially received approval for continuing education credits through ACI, adding significant value for biomedical equipment technicians, clinical engineers and other healthcare technology management (HTM) professionals seeking to maintain certifications and further their professional development.
Organized by MD Publishing, HTM Mixer Northwest is designed as a regional extension of the MD Expo experience, offering a more intimate setting focused on education, networking and industry collaboration. The event is supported by the Oregon Biomedical Association (OBA) and Washington State Biomedical Association (WSBA).
In addition to earning CEUs, attendees will have access to educational sessions addressing many of today’s most pressing HTM challenges and opportunities. Planned sessions and discussions are expected to explore topics such as cybersecurity, regulatory compliance, medical equipment management strategies, leadership development and emerging technologies impacting healthcare delivery.
The educational programming is designed to provide practical takeaways that HTM professionals can apply directly within their healthcare organizations while also helping attendees stay informed about evolving industry standards and best practices.
Beyond the classroom, attendees will have opportunities to engage with peers, manufacturers, suppliers and service providers throughout the event’s exhibit hall and networking activities. Organizers say the regional Mixer format encourages more meaningful conversations and stronger professional connections than larger national conferences.
For HTM professionals throughout the Pacific Northwest and beyond, the event offers multiple benefits, including:
- Earning ACI-approved continuing education credits
- Expanding professional networks within the HTM community
- Exploring new products, technologies and service solutions
- Learning practical strategies from experienced industry leaders
- Connecting directly with manufacturers and technology providers
- Participating in discussions shaping the future of healthcare technology management
Registration is now officially open for HTM Mixer Northwest, and is free for hospital employees, students and members of the military. Organizers encourage early registration for what is expected to become a premier regional event for the HTM community.
