Make the Most of Your Conference Experience: Learn, Align, and Connect

You’re not just attending another conference. You’re investing in stronger documentation, sharper clinical judgment, certification confidence, and a clearer understanding of how AI can support, not replace, your expertise.

While the sessions are the heart of the COS-C / CHS-C Conference, the conversations and connections that happen outside the classroom often make the biggest impact.

This year’s venue at Live! Casino & Hotel Maryland makes it easy to learn deeply during the day and recharge intentionally in the evening, whether you’re traveling with your team or attending solo.

Learn Together. Leave Aligned.

When you attend with a colleague –  a QA partner, educator, clinical manager, or fellow clinician – the value multiplies.
Between sessions, the venue’s flexible lounges and gathering spaces offer the perfect setting to:

  • Debrief complex case scenarios
  • Compare what you’ve learned about OASIS and HOPE guidance
  • Discuss practical AI guardrails
  • Align on documentation standards before heading home

These in-between conversations often turn insight into implementation.

Recharge After a Full Day of Training

Absorbing new information takes energy. Fortunately, everything you need is steps away.

You’ll have access to:

  • Seven full-service restaurants and four quick-service options
  • A modern fitness center
  • Live! Spa for massages, facials, and relaxation
  • 310 guest rooms designed for comfort and quiet

Whether you recharge best through conversation, movement, quiet, or great food, you can choose what restores you each day.

Convenient, Walkable, and Easy

Located adjacent to Arundel Mills®, Maryland’s largest mall, the venue offers:

  • 200+ stores within walking distance
  • Cinemark theater and Medieval Times entertainment options
  • Complimentary parking and an adjoining garage
  • In-room dining when you prefer a quiet evening

Everything is contained and accessible — allowing you to focus on learning without logistical stress.

Stay Onsite for the Full Experience

To make your conference experience as seamless as possible, we encourage attendees to stay at Live! Casino & Hotel Maryland. Being onsite allows you to move easily between sessions, connect with colleagues in the evenings, and fully immerse yourself in the learning experience.

Good news: The deadline to reserve a room at the conference rate has been extended.
Register and secure your hotel room by February 20 to stay onsite.

Rooms are limited, so we recommend booking soon to ensure availability. Check the conference page for details.

More Than a Conference

You’re stepping away from daily responsibilities to:

  • Strengthen OASIS and HOPE accuracy
  • Prepare for COS-C or CHS-C certification
  • Evaluate real-world AI tools with a clinician’s lens
  • Return to your agency with clarity and confidence

This is your time to learn, connect, and enjoy the experience. Take advantage of the setting. Bring a colleague. Have the deeper conversations. Make the plan before you leave.

Learn. Align. Connect. Recharge.

We’ll see you in Maryland.
