METHODS
Instructor Led Training (Classroom Training)
Instructor Led Training (ILT) usually refers to traditional classroom training, in which an instructor
teaches a course to a classroom of learners. This interactive, engaging learning environment allows
participants to ask questions, role-play, practice as they learn, share lessons learned, and network
with colleagues. The main areas of Instructor Led Training are; FYZICAL Lab, Orthopedics, Balance
and Pelvic Health.
Webinar Training (Virtual Training)
A Webinar is a training session held via the Internet in real time. An Internet connection and audio is
required. Students will receive an email that provides them a link to access the webinar along with
login information. Students should plan to login at least 15 minutes early to ensure all systems are
working properly and allow time to troubleshoot any challenges prior to the start of the webinar.
Self-Paced Online Learning
Self-Paced Online Learning (SPO) can be accessed anytime from any computer, tablet, or mobile
device with internet access. Courses may be completed more than once. Even after students have
completed a course, students can go back at any time and refresh their knowledge. A strong component
of online training is video-based learning. An internet connection and audio is required.

CONCUSSION:
An Evidence-Based Course
for Maximal Results
About this class
Each year, millions of children, adults and seniors sustain concussion. When this occurs, it is not uncommon
to develop headaches, changes in mood, visual and cognitive changes, fatigue, migraine/headaches, cervical
pain, and vestibular dysfunction. The purpose of this course is to prepare practitioners with the tools to
improve quality of care and have clinical guidelines and treatment algorithms to return the patient safely back
to sport, home, or work. Current evidence supports multi-modal approach using clinical trajectories. This two
day course will review the history, physiological, and recent advances in the diagnosis and management. For
each clinical trajectory, a comprehensive assessment with validated objective test will be implemented to get
the practitioner comfortable with administration and rehabilitation as needed. Course participants will use
vestibular, visual, cervical and exertional rehabilitation strategies to treat concussion injuries effectively to
insure recurrent symptomology does not return.

DEFINITIONS
& TERMS
Practice
Training techniques in which learners actively perform behaviors, practice interactions, communicate
for a desired outcome, and/or solve a dynamic problem. Practice sessions reinforce learning and help
people apply new information, skills, and techniques.
Technical
Technical: Of, relating to, or derived from a technique; having special skill or practical knowledge
especially in a mechanical or scientific field and/or used in or peculiar to a specific field or profession;
belonging or relating to a particular subject; of, relating to, or involving the practical, mechanical, or
industrial arts or the applied sciences.
Web Based Training (WBT)
Web-based training, also known as e learning, is anywhere, anytime instruction delivered via the
internet or a corporate intranet to browser-equipped learners. There are two primary models of webbased
instruction: synchronous (instructor-facilitated) and asynchronous (self-directed, self-paced.)
Instruction can be delivered by a combination of static methods (learning portals, hyper-linked pages,
screen cam tutorials, streaming audio/video, and live web broadcasts) and interactive methods
(threaded discussions, chats, and desktop video conferencing.)
Performance
Work completed in terms of employment; the execution or accomplishment of work, acts, or behavior,
which is measurable.
Instructor Led Training (ILT)
ILT (instructor-led training) usually refers to traditional classroom training in which an instructor
teaches course to a room of learners. The term is used synonymously with on-site training and
classroom training.
24

Learning
Learning: A cognitive and/or physical process in which a person assimilates information and
temporarily or permanently acquires or improves skills, knowledge, behaviors, and/or attitudes.
Blended Learning
Blended learning is a learning approach that includes the use of appropriate combinations of
information technologies including videoconferencing, audio conferencing, Internet, CD-ROM, and
other media, combined with appropriate learning technologies, on-site facilitated activities and strong
learner support systems
Certification
Certification is the awarding of a credential acknowledging that an individual has demonstrated proof
of a minimum level of knowledge or competence, as defined by a professional standards
organization. Professional certification can be used as a screening tool and as verification of an
individual’s skills or knowledge.
E-Learning
E-learning (electronic learning) covers a wide set of applications and processes, such as web-based
learning, computer-based learning, virtual classrooms and digital collaboration. It includes the delivery
of content via the internet, intranet/extranet (LAN/WAN), audio- and videotape, satellite broadcast,
interactive TV, CD-ROM, and more.
Learning Management System (LMS)
A learning management system (LMS) is a software application or web-based technology used to
plan, implement, and assess a specific learning process. Typically, an LMS provides an instructor with
a way to create and deliver content, monitor student participation and assess student performance.
FYZICAL College is a LMS.
FYZICAL Lab
FYZICAL Lab is the process utilized for welcoming a new team member into the FYZICAL family.
Generally, it contains proprietary information about how to successfully run a FYZICAL franchise.
