Description
Program Objectives
The Acute Core workshop is an intense 3 day hands-on workshop using dozens of live human models that participants will practice scanning. The exams are designed for participants to obtain full independent practitioner certification at the end of the course. There will be new models each day allowing you an opportunity to practice your hands-on skills on many different people. Day 1 will be a teaching day, Day 2 will be spent scanning, and Day 3 will be the exam day.
Access to the online mandatory pre-course will be sent to participants approximately 4 weeks prior to the bootcamp. Please make sure you all complete it before arrival on the first day. The pre-course is a critical component for being successful at the bootcamp. It is suggested to schedule a minimum of 10 hours to complete the pre-course.
