for the certification examination offered by the American Chiropractic

The
course is open to anyone (see
eligibility) who wants to receive excellent and
comprehensive training in infrared imaging, whether or not the
registrant intends to attain Board Certification.

National University of Health Sciences
(formerly National College of Chiropractic).
(Their PG division is called the Lincoln College of Postprofessional,
Graduate and Continuing Education.)

and Instructors:

means that students have to travel only five times, instead of nine.

Washington, and the remaining two 20-hour sessions will be held in the
California Bay area.

Times:
The schedule will be the same for all dates and will run as follows, in
order to allow early departure on Sunday to catch flights:
Friday 8-12 and 1:30-6:30 (9 hrs)
Saturday 8-12 and 1:30-6:30 (9 hrs)
Sunday 8-10 (2 hrs)
Eligibility:
A doctor in any health care
specialty may take the course; however, only doctors of chiropractic may
apply to take the certification examination offered by the American
Chiropractic Board of Infrared Imaging.
This is because the American Chiropractic College of Infrared
Imaging and its Board are subdivisions of the American Chiropractic
Association, and all certification boards approved by the ACA are
limited by strict bylaws to only DCs.
This excellent course not only prepares a
doctor to take the certification examination, but also prepares the
doctor to use infrared imaging properly in his/her practice.
Furthermore, it provides an appropriate level of expertise to participate
knowledgeably in future ACCII symposia.
Note that doctors who wish to certify must complete all 100 hours
of the course.
Doctorates qualifying for attendance include DC, DO,
MD, ND, DDS, PhD, or DVM.
Technicians
who work directly under the supervision of a doctor who attends the same
class may also attend at the same fee as required for a doctor.
Technicians in any field may not attend separately from the
doctor for whom they work.
Although
technicians will certainly benefit from the material presented, there is
no certification for technicians available through the ACCII, nor will
there be in the future. As
noted above, this is because the ACCII is a subdivision of the American
Chiropractic Association, and all certification boards approved by the
ACA are limited by strict
bylaws to only DCs.
Cost:
For the entire 100-hour course:
$2500, payable in advance by November 18, 2005.
Make checks payable to National University, but send to Dr. Vlasuk
AT
LEAST NINE STUDENTS
MUST BE SIGNED UP AND PAID IN ADVANCE BY
NOVEMBER 18, 2005, FOR THIS
COURSE TO BE OFFERED in 2006 OTHERWISE,
WE WILL SCHEDULE THE COURSE TO BEGIN IN JANUARY 2007.
