FCER Learning Center Puts the Experts on Call to Fit Your Schedule  

Norwalk, Iowa—To make research-based doctor education programs more accessible to the busy practicing clinician, the Foundation for Chiropractic Education and Research (FCER) has launched the FCER Learning Center. The FCER Learning Center contains an online series of courses that have been developed from FCER’s popular teleconferences—with the benefit of being available when you are ready. Each course is reasonably priced at $35 and can be accessed through www.fcer.org.

The convenience of the FCER Learning Center’s programs go beyond the ability to access the information at any time: you are also able to stop and continue the program as needed and go through the program at your own speed. In addition to viewing the program online, an audio accompaniment and discussion from the author complements the slides, which include full references.
Six courses are immediately available:

  • “Surviving a Deposition”

  • “Accurate Clinical Documentation”

  • “Chiropractic Headache Management”

  • “Comparison Shopping: Costs of Chiropractic vs. Medical Treatment”

  • “Back to the Future: New Dimensions of Back Pain Research”

  • “NMS and Physiological Responses to Spinal Manipulation”

Each presenter was chosen based on his or her knowledge of the topic to be discussed and the use of evidence to support the material. Programs already available for viewing include presentations from Warren Jahn, DC; Charles Herring, DC; and Anthony L. Rosner, PhD. Additional speakers to be included as the listing of courses increases are Lisa Killinger, DC; Michael Schneider, DC, PhD (cand); and Donald R. Murphy, DC, DACAN. New courses will be added monthly.

The FCER Learning Center has been established as part of the Chiropractic Clinical Training Program in the Evidence-Based Chiropractic Resource Center (EB-CRC). The clinical training program provides doctors of chiropractic with education and training opportunities that will increase their ability to provide evidence-based care.

Having focused much of its efforts on the need for research in chiropractic, FCER is now turning a focus on the educational aspects of its mission: To promote the health and wellbeing of humanity by encouraging and supporting research and education relative to the field of chiropractic care, and to provide information needed to document and improve chiropractic healthcare capacity worldwide. The EB-CRC will enable FCER to combine the profession’s research and educational resources to meet the needs of all of chiropractic’s stakeholders.

The FCER Learning Center is powered by Icceleration© learning content software system. The system was made available by Icceleration, Inc., through Drs. Stephen Foreman and Michael Stahl. FCER also used funds donated by DCs as a part of the Stroke course offered by CEvantive University. FCER gratefully acknowledges their generosity.

Courses are available for $35 each. For more information, please go to www.fcer.icceleration.com.
