Sterile Processing never stands still. New technologies, evolving standards and increasingly complex instrumentation mean teams are constantly adapting, and constantly learning.
From September 14–16, CtUC 2026 brings the Censis customer community together for three days of education, collaboration and practical learning designed to help Sterile Processing professionals turn new knowledge into meaningful improvements in their departments.
This year’s theme, From Experience to Impact, captures exactly that goal.
CtUC has been bringing Censis customers together for more than a decade, evolving alongside the Sterile Processing industry and the challenges teams face every day.
During a recent ConCensis Podcast preview, Censis team members Melissa Higgins, Director of Customer Advancement; Jacob Long, Director of Sales Engineering; and Olivia Fistek, Regional Account Manager, shared what continues to make the event valuable.
For Melissa, it comes down to what attendees can do with what they learn.
“The most important thing about CtUC is that our customers can learn things that they need to be doing and take them back to their facilities and put those into action to take better care of the patients that we serve.”
That idea is at the center of CtUC 2026. Sessions are designed to provide practical knowledge, resources and strategies attendees can apply to the realities of their own departments.
As technology advances and instrumentation becomes more complex, the knowledge required to safely and efficiently support the OR continues to grow.
CtUC 2026 is built with those realities in mind.
Attendees can expect education around timely industry topics, including water quality, along with conversations focused on evolving expectations, day-to-day workflows and opportunities to improve efficiency.
The agenda also features different learning paths, including a general track and dedicated leadership and technician tracks, helping attendees choose sessions most relevant to their roles and responsibilities.
With 20+ CE credits available, attendees can also support their continued professional development while gaining ideas they can bring back to their teams.
CtUC is also an opportunity for customers to explore how Censis continues to evolve alongside their needs.
From updates to CensiTrac, to new ways of accessing reporting, metrics and operational insights, attendees can learn more about the tools available to their teams and how to get more value from them.
As Jacob discussed during the podcast, the goal is to connect what teams need to accomplish operationally with how technology can help document, standardize and support those processes.
Because getting more from technology isn’t simply about using more features. It’s about helping teams work more effectively
Learn From the Censis Community
Some of the most valuable CtUC takeaways come from hearing how other Sterile Processing professionals are approaching the same challenges.
Every department is different, but many teams are working through similar questions around efficiency, technology, compliance and changing industry expectations.
As Olivia shared during the podcast:
“What’s working for one facility can help another.”
Throughout the virtual event, attendees will have opportunities to ask questions, exchange ideas and connect with Censis experts and fellow Sterile Processing professionals through live discussions and Q&As.
Those conversations can turn one department’s experience into another department’s next great idea.
Turn Experience Into Impact
Ultimately, every new idea, workflow improvement and efficiency gained in Sterile Processing connects back to something bigger: supporting the OR and helping protect patients.
That is the impact CtUC 2026 is designed to create.
Whether you want to stay ahead of industry changes, discover new ways to use Censis solutions, earn CE credits or hear how other Sterile Processing teams are tackling similar challenges, CtUC is an opportunity to learn, connect and bring new ideas back to your department.
