NOW SCHEDULING 2010 - 2011 Seminar Locations
- Easy to host
- No cost to facility
- PR for facility on our advertising materials
- Inexpensive CEUs for attendees
- Accredited professional presentations

- Adult or Pediatric focus

You provide a liaison, we provide the rest.
As a host facility we ask that your facility provide:
- Space enough to comfort
- ably seat 40 people we tend to average about 35
- Patient volunteers for the demonstration portion of the courses (if needed)
- Morning & afternoon munchies (we provide a catered lunch)
- AV equipment (i.e. lcd projector, dvd, screen)
- A course liaison that we work directly with for all of the planning
- At least 6 clinicians to attend the course
(3 are free spots, 3 paid at a reduced rate of $125*)
There are several ways to bring a course to your facility. A facility can purchase a course for their staff or community, or be a host facility. Hosting options are listed below for Purchase option pricing information is available on request. The purchase price for some courses is variable and determined by date and geography. We believe you will find our courses reasonably priced to make efficient use of your continuing education dollars. For the Seminar Hosting option we ask that a facility commit to sending at least 6 people. We have found that it makes for a better course if the host facility is represented. We will invoice your facility for the 3 spots even if they are not filled, so it is important that you can verify that you have enough interest among your own clinicians prior to hosting a seminar. We take care of everything associated with the course. We ship all needed items to your facility ahead of time.
Please let me know if you would like additional information on a particular course or group of courses. Again, we are currently scheduling for 2010. Of course, there are also LiteGait training seminars as well, which differ from all of the above and focus on some theory, with an in-depth Lab for LiteGait use. I would be happy to give you prices for those as well if interested. If you are interested in the purchasing option of any of the listed courses, just let me know and I will forward the all inclusive price list to your attention
Thank you again for your interest & I hope to hear from you soon.
