Your next step in surgical tech success starts here.

Whether you’re preparing for the CST exam, just secured your first role, or are exploring the world of travel teching — this event is designed to meet you where you are and help you level up.

We’re closing out the year with a power-packed, hands-on Skills Lab + Networking experience that blends real-world advice with practical learning. You’ll hear straight from experienced surgical techs, gain clarity on what to expect in your first job, and rotate through stations to practice foundational OR skills.

Here’s what you can expect:

🔹 "Things to Know" Session: Honest conversations and guidance on navigating your early surgical tech journey — from hiring and onboarding to advocating for yourself and exploring travel roles.

🔹 Skills Lab Stations: Practice gowning, gloving, draping, and more — the essential skills you’ll use daily in the OR, whether you’re fresh out of school or refreshing your technique.

🔹 Study Corner: Studying for the CST? Join others in our peer-study space and tap into the support of experienced surgical techs ready to answer your questions.

🔹 Networking Built-In: Meet fellow techs, find your community, and leave with real connections that last beyond the event.
