Our vision is to create a better everyday life for many people and bring inspiration and innovation to everyone
We share our passion for sharing knowledge with students from all walks of life. All our courses are planned, recorded and edited based on 3 core principles:
  • Our online courses start with a thorough explanation of the topic covered.
  • Our unique 3-part layout provides the best visual quality on the web.
  • All our lessons are applied to common industry practices so that you understand how to use the theory in a practical context.
A thriving community

500 students and counting

If you have a chance to learn from Stephen, take it in a heartbeat! (Then grab your nearest US machine and assess that heartbeat 🤓)
Brady James PT, DPT, CCS
The POCUS Diagnostic US course is a game changer for any clinician looking to differentiate themselves from others in the field. We spent the weekend gaining proficiency in using a tool like Diagnostic US for everything from visualizing Soft tissue injuries and inflammation in structures like muscle, tendon, and bone - to screening for things like dehydration, DVT’s , and cardiac risk. Our staff is pumped to be able to use technology like this to more accurately direct our treatments and/or our decisions to refer out for further testing for either MSK surgical needs or for potential non-MSK related issues that need immediate attention.

Frequently asked questions

How can I choose my courses?

We offer a number of different learning paths, which you are invited to read and choose the one that better meets your needs. However if you need any advice or clarifications, we are at your disposal at any time.

What if the student and teacher’s personalities don’t work well together or the student is dissatisfied?

We have 16 teachers so if a problem occurs – which is extremely rare – we can switch you over to one of the other teachers. If you think you may get more out of lessons from a teacher with a different teaching style, we have the flexibility to change you to another instructor.

What can you offer that I cannot get at other online schools?

With us you will have the opportunity to learn from some of the most notable professionals in the field. We are intricately involved with education across the U.S. Our students regularly participate in local, state-wide, and national workshops and festivals.
