The World Institute of Pain courses were established in 1995 with the primary objectives of educating physicians to promote the development of safe, high-quality practice of interventional pain management techniques for the diagnosis and treatment of pain and related disorders, and to promote patients’ access to pain management from all corners of the world.

Program Highlights:

• Review Course with hands-on cadaver workshops for those preparing for the FIPP (Fellowship in Interventional Pain Practice) and CIPS (Certified Interventional Pain Sonologist) exams.
• Mock Exam Station to help candidates better prepare for the CIPS exam.
• Examinations: Both the FIPP and CIPS exams will be offered on Sunday, March 15, 2026. The FIPP Examination will be available in English and Spanish.

We are excited to offer this comprehensive educational experience in Orlando and look forward to your participation. It will be an excellent opportunity to advance your expertise in pain management, connect with peers, and prepare for certification exams.

We hope to see you in São Paulo in March 2026!
