Program Agenda
Module One (Online): Multidisciplinary didactics
The first 7 hours of the course will consist of online didactic material. In the weeks prior to the course, participants will be given electronic access to the teaching material created by multidisciplinary faculty, and will be expected to review this material closely. Participants will be required to take an online exam in order to demonstrate comprehension of the material, and must pass this exam in order to attend the hands-on portion of the course. The online format will allow for more time to digest and absorb the information from the comfort of your home or office.

Hands-on cadaver and medical models training and live patient treatment. Instructed and supervised by multidisciplinary faculty.
