Vestibular-Visual Matters is a regularly-delivered series available for ongoing enrolment. Upon registration here, participants receive immediate access to the pre-recorded learning modules, handouts and resources. Access to this content expires in one year from the date that you purchase your registration.
In addition to the immediately available pre-recorded content, this course includes one complimentary live on Zoom 60-minute Q&A session with Kim & the Relationship Matters Team. The event calendar date currently displayed reflects the date of the next upcoming Q&A session. You will be automatically assigned the next upcoming Q&A date for your complimentary session, based on the date of your registration.
These Q&A sessions are scheduled to take place approximately every 6-8 months, with the recording of this session available for an additional year upon the date that it is made available. Course certificates are available upon request in the form provided in the course after the live Q&A session has taken place – live participation or viewing of the Q&A recording is required for your certificate (if this is an issue for you due to funding or other deadlines, please contact us here to discuss options). Registrants are encouraged to submit questions in advance and ask them live. Even if registrants are unable to make the Q&A date and time, they will still be able to see the Q&A’s recording. Upon completion of the pre-recorded lessons as well as their complimentary Q&A, registrants then meet the prerequisite of attending any future Q&A for a small fee ($30 CDN) should they wish to further engage with Kim & the team or have new questions on this topic.
As always, financial support and group discounts are available. Please find links to apply for these below.
If you have any questions about our courses, please contact our team here.
We look forward to supporting you in your learning journey.
Vestibular-Visual Matters
This 18-hour intensive dive into the development and integration of the vestibular and visual systems offers clinicians the opportunity to understand the impact that their interconnectedness has upon function and intervention. Neuroscience guides clinical reasoning and problem-solving, offering validation with evidence for our treatment selections. Occupational Therapists and Physical Therapists will have the opportunity to bridge theory to practice through lecture and videotape analysis, delivered via pre-recorded modules. Although the goal of this course is primarily to support pediatric rehabilitation, the concepts will be applicable across the lifespan. This is an intermediate-level learning experience, and neurodiversity within a wide range of diagnostic categories will be explored.
This series contains edited recordings of each of the 8 X two-hour sessions that were delivered live in March - April, 2022, led by Kim and supported by her Relationship Matters Team, and will be available to registrants for 365 days upon registration (extensions granted upon request) for continuous on-demand streaming. Handouts and an extensive reference list are also available as part of the course content.
The registrant will be able to:
1. Analyze the impact of the vestibular system upon posture and movement
2. Summarize the neuroscientific contributions of the vestibular system upon regulation, emotion, cognition and learning
3. Determine the impact of the visual system upon posture and movement
4. Describe the current science of visual contributions to regulation, emotion, behaviour and learning
5. Assess skills of vestibular functioning through videotape analysis, labs, breakout room participation
6. Develop vestibular-visual strategies that support clients with a range of vestibular-visual challenges, in diverse settings
