PARK RIDGE, IL — The American Society of Safety Professionals (ASSP) has opened registration for its signature safety education event. The Safety 2025 Professional Development Conference and Exposition is set for Tuesday, July 22, through Thursday, July 24, at the Orange County Convention Center in Orlando.
Safety 2025 offers workplace safety and health professionals a vast networking experience while giving them opportunities to learn about best practices, industry trends and the latest product innovations. More than 200 continuing education sessions will provide practical information that safety professionals can immediately put to use at their organizations.
“Our conference and expo is a dynamic learning and networking experience that supports our mission to help protect workers in every industry worldwide,” said ASSP President Pam Walaski, CSP, FASSP. “It’s a place to find real solutions to safety challenges, especially today when environments can quickly change. After last year’s record-breaking event that sold out, we’re excited about the experience planned for attendees this time around.”
Thousands of safety and health professionals look to ASSP’s annual conference – now in its 64th year – to advance their careers and interact with experts who will share proven techniques for elevating safety at their companies. Attendees will also be inspired, entertained and informed by popular general sessions.
As a focal point of the event, the exposition will feature more than 600 exhibitors showcasing innovative products and safety solutions that can help organizations eliminate hazards and risks that cause injuries, illnesses and fatalities on the job. The expo floor will include an interactive Career Advancement Center that will serve all attendees, not just those looking for a new position.
“Our expo is widely known for being so illuminating and engaging that safety and health professionals find it just as educational as the sessions,” Walaski said. “Many vendors also bring their product developers and present meaningful learning opportunities.”
Safety professionals can earn 1.5 continuing education units (CEUs) for career advancement. Register online to get the discounted early rate through March 13.

“If your job involves the safety and health of your organization, Safety 2025 is the place to gain critical insights and knowledge to advance your work environment,” said Alex Ruiz, CSP, CIH, CHMM, CHST, chair of ASSP’s Professional Development Conference Planning Committee. “It’s a comprehensive experience that provides significant value for occupational safety and health professionals at every level of experience.”
Orlando is a popular location for ASSP’s annual event, home to the nation’s second-largest convention center. The safety conference was last there in 2014. Orlando is well known for its sunny weather and world-famous theme parks. The city is also home to The Orlando Eye, a stunning 400-foot observation wheel at Icon Park that ranks among the 10 largest in the world. The attraction is only 1 mile from the convention center.
