Why CFED?

California’s Premier Conference for Fire, EMS, Nursing, Emergency Medical Dispatch, and Disaster Response
 

The CFED Conference & Expo is California’s premier annual event, specifically designed for first responders and emergency professionals. 

 

Each year, we bring together firefighters, paramedics, nurses, emergency dispatchers, and disaster preparedness teams for an immersive week of learning, networking, and skill-building.
 

Attendees can expect dynamic keynote speakers, practical presentations, hands-on workshops, and scenario-based training focused on the challenges you face in the field. From fire operations to EMS innovation, emergency communications, emergency nursing, and disaster readiness, CFED delivers real-world education you can apply the moment you return to duty.
 

With competitive events, live demonstrations, and an expo hall filled with the latest tools and technology, CFED is more than a conference—it’s a chance to strengthen your skills, connect with peers across the state, and prepare for the future of emergency response.
