TESTIMONIALS

This was a terrific experience! I would highly recommend this workshop to any new PT/PTA faculty. The information was presented very well and the speakers are engaging and knowledgeable. After attending the workshop, I feel more confident and excited to use the tools I learned this academic year.
This is a must-do experience! This is the orientation you wish you'd get on your campus, led by experienced, knowledgeable leaders in PT and academia. I left with a ton of Monday-morning pearls, and a treasure trove of resources. I highly recommend this course to any new PT or PTA faculty!
The sessions on developing a scholarly agenda and systematic effective instruction are areas that PTs who come from clinic to classroom can really sink their teeth into and get better footing on this new journey.
This workshop was an incredible experience in learning about yourself as an educator, peer, and academy member. It was fantastic getting to meet colleagues from around the country in similar professional situations to learn from and support one another. Highly recommend!
