Advanced Clinical Reasoning in Burn Wound Management
Presented by Jennifer Gardner-Harbison, PT, DPT, MHA, CWS
Live WebinarWed, Sep 2, 2026 at 6:00 pm EDT
Course: #5440Level: Advanced2 Hours
This 2-hour course equips therapists with advanced clinical reasoning skills for managing burn injuries across the continuum of care. Participants will apply evidence-based frameworks to assess burn depth, protect tissue perfusion, recognize infection, manage grafts, prevent contractures, and optimize functional outcomes. Through case studies and practical strategies, clinicians will learn how to integrate wound care principles with rehabilitation to improve mobility, healing, and long-term recovery to support daily activities.

Evidence-Based Respiratory Muscle Training in Amyotrophic Lateral Sclerosis
Presented by Douglas Eck, PT, DPT, NCS, MHI, ATP
Live WebinarThu, Sep 3, 2026 at 12:00 pm EDT
Course: #5487Level: Advanced1 Hour
This course equips interdisciplinary rehabilitation professionals with a practical, evidence-based framework for safely integrating Respiratory Muscle Strength Training (RMST) into Amyotrophic Lateral Sclerosis (ALS) care. Dispelling historical concerns of "overwork weakness," the session explores how targeted Expiratory Muscle Strength Training (EMST) preserves respiratory function, enhances swallow kinematics, and fortifies vital airway defense mechanisms without accelerating disease progression. Clinicians will bridge the gap between research and clinical application by mastering pressure-threshold device selection, resistance calibration, and the validated "Rule of Fives" dosing protocol. Ultimately, this course empowers therapists to confidently design, progress, and monitor home-based respiratory training programs that maximize patient independence and optimize long-term respiratory health.

Taping for the Lower Extremity
Presented by Alex Siyufy, PT, DPT, SCS, ATC, Cert. MDT, CPAM, Cert. DN, SFMA
Recorded Webinar
Course: #5436Level: Introductory2 Hours
This course provides practical lower-extremity taping strategies you can use right away in the clinic. You’ll learn both rigid (McConnell-style) and elastic kinesiology taping techniques to help reduce pain, improve movement, and support healing. We’ll focus on common conditions you see every week, including patellofemoral pain syndrome (PFPS), plantar fasciitis, shin pain, and lower extremity tendon issues. You’ll also learn effective arch support taping and how taping can help guide alignment and offload irritated tissues. Designed for both new and experienced clinicians, this course builds confidence in your taping skills while helping you think through when, why, and how to use each technique for the greatest impact in rehab and performance care.

Wisconsin Ethics and Jurisprudence for the Physical Therapy Professional
Presented by Calista Kelly, PT, DPT, ACEEAA, Cert. MDT
Text/Transcript
Course: #5514Level: Intermediate4 Hours
This course provides Wisconsin physical therapists and physical therapist assistants with a comprehensive review of the laws and regulations governing PT practice in the state, including the Wisconsin Physical Therapy Practice Act, key federal laws such as HIPAA and the ADA, licensure requirements, supervision rules, and the Physical Therapy Licensure Compact. The course also examines professional ethics using the 2026 APTA Code of Ethics as its foundation, exploring the nine Ethical Commitments, foundational ethical principles and theories, and real-world case studies using the RIPS Model, including emerging issues in moral distress, social media, artificial intelligence, and the care of aging and pediatric populations.

Ethics in Physical Therapy: Translating the Code and Models into Clinical Practice
Presented by Kathleen D. Weissberg, OTD, OTR/L, CMDCP, CDP, CFPS, CGCS
Recorded WebinarText/Transcript
Course: #5456Level: Intermediate3 Hours
Move beyond the basics of the updated APTA Code of Ethics by learning to apply structured decision-making frameworks, including the RIPS model, to complex real-world scenarios. Designed for practicing PTs and PTAs, this course focuses on navigating the 'grey areas' of clinical judgment, from productivity pressures to interprofessional conflict. Participants will gain actionable strategies to translate ethical obligations into daily practice with confidence and integrity.

The Science Of Regulation: Bridging Brain, Body, And Function In Pediatric Therapy
Presented by Audrie Vantangoli, MOT, OTD, OTR/L
