Do you provide Continuing Education (CE) credits?
Yes, in most cases. The seminars are 2 days (~12 hours) and can often be utilized for continuing education credits (chiropractors). Note: You must check with your regulating body to confirm your specific CE requirements (Physiotherapists, RMTs, trainers, others). For some groups, AMA may apply for specific CE credit status. Contact us for more details.
Do you have to re-certify yearly?
No. However, you may audit (see below) future Extremity courses for a minimal fee to refresh your understanding and see new material. Note: You cannot audit the Therapeutics seminar.
Who can Audit?
In order to promote lifelong learning, AMA is happy to offer auditing for all previously AMA Certified Practitioners. Once you have taken a course (Lower or Upper Extremity only), you can audit that same course at a future date for $50 (New manuals can be purchased for an additional $30).
NOTE: Please email us at [email protected] before registering to determine if there are spots remaining in the seminar to audit. Should an auditing client withdraw from the course at any time, NO refund will be issued. If the client does not attend the course, NO refund will be issued.
What is AMA's cancellation policy?
AMA reserves the right to cancel all seminars. If AMA cancels the seminar, clients will be given a full refund for the course only. In the event that a seminar is cancelled due to, but not limited to, a scheduling issue, venue issue, or geo-political issue, AMA will refund or credit your seminar fee but will not compensate for any flights, accommodations, or missed work. Should the client withdraw from the course with greater than 14 calendar days before the first day of the course, then a $100.00 processing fee will be withheld and the balance refunded. For cancellations with 14 calendar days or less to the date of the course, no refund will be issued. If the client does not attend the course, no refund will be issued.
Audits: Should an auditing client withdraw from the course at any time, NO refund will be issued. If the client does not attend the course, NO refund will be issued.
