Fracture Liaison Service (FLS) Workshop

Wednesday, May 27, 2026

12:00 PM to 5:00 PM

Capital Hilton, Washington, DC

Pre-Symposium Workshop at ISO2026

ISO2026 offers outstanding content on diagnosing and treating osteoporosis, bone loss, and fractures, and this year’s Fracture Liaison Service (FLS) Workshop is among the content. The FLS Training and Certificate of Completion addresses the most pressing economic and health system challenges to implementing the FLS model of care. Developed specifically for clinicians and care teams, this workshop equips participants with both the rationale and the practical tools to build, staff, and sustain a successful FLS program in their own institutions.

To maximize your time onsite, precourse work will be provided to registered participants prior to the event. This foundational preparation ensures you arrive ready to engage with faculty and dive deeper into the content from day one.
