Frankenmuth, MI

What the Attendees are Saying...

When asked "What was the best part of the program?" surveyed attendees made the following responses:

"There was a full agenda of continuing education to choose from. Many different speakers and subjects for the beginning SPTA to the advanced therapist. The networking and presentations were remarkable, and the staff was very accommodating and helpful."
"I enjoyed the classes and believe that what I learned will enhance my treatment."
"The enthusiasm of all the people presenting made the day exciting. As a first year SPT, I had a great time learning about topics relevant to PT and meeting people."
"Presenters were fantastic! Very excellent presentations."
"Flexibility to attend sessions."
"As a student, I really enjoyed the relevant information on the various aspects of low back pain. I was also interested in the different forms of therapy for complex pain syndrome. Lastly, it is very beneficial to be involved in the political aspect of our career so the updates on bills pertinent to physical therapy were very helpful."
"It was a fun and educational weekend."
"I enjoyed the variety of presentations that were available to choose from."
"I really enjoyed the short break-out sessions. It was nice to get a variety of topics in one day. The business meeting is also very informative."
