Who is it for?

Aquatic Practitioners

This solves the problem of not staying up-to-date or not maintaining continuing education because of the travel and lodging expenses and time away from work. The special advantage of these courses is that they can be viewed at your convenience – not at only one specific time. Courses will be available for one year from their presentation. Course proceedings (handouts and supplemental materials) will also be included for online attendees to download and print.

 

Clients

Clients will be able to gain knowledge regarding their own treatment plan by accessing specific educational courses via the internet. 

 

Access for PC and MAC Users

ATRI Online Education can be accessed by PC and MAC users.
