Motion demonstrates a commitment to high quality, professional education, and training through the maintenance of our International Accreditors of Continuing Education and Training (IACET) accreditation. IACET accreditation means:
With over 200 resources available, Motion offers more than 50 online and hybrid learnings with Continuing Education Units (CEU) credits through our online learning portal.
While the term ‘CEU’ is in the public domain, not all continuing education or professional training hours are true IACET CEUs. Only accredited providers (APs), like Motion, who have been approved by the IACET Commission are allowed to award accredited CEUs.
Attend a complimentary in-person training held at Motion’s more than 45 locations across the country or take part in one of our over 10 Motion Rehab Expos attended by over 1,500 care professionals annually.
In-person training is available on both clinical topics and hands-on equipment demonstrations.
