Specialized knowledge and advanced clinical skills are required to practice at a high level in today’s challenging health care market.
We have designed a comprehensive continuing education series in the area of Orthopaedic Physical Therapy to enable you to gain the knowledge and skills necessary to expand and enhance your orthopaedic skill set.
This program is comprised of “hands-on” modules of concentrated classroom and lab instruction geared toward 1) newly graduated physical therapists who work in orthopaedic physical therapy clinical practice with access to skilled and experienced clinical mentors and 2) experienced clinicians who would like to hone their skills as clinical supervisors of staff, interns and residents.
