The Academy’s hands-on format with patient treatment requires the presence of each participant for ten (10) sessions to maintain eligibility to receive the Academy’s Associate Fellowship Award. By making the commitment to take the course, the participant is committed to the hands-on treatment of the patients he/she provides for the course or to those patients provided by the course host.
