This intensive two-day course was designed to provide clinicians with the most up-to-date tools to allow delivery of successful treatment plans for wound healing. Presented in a "fun learning" environment, this course allows comfortable interaction with the speaker and over 35% hands-on lab experience.

Through a combination of interesting lecture and extensive hands-on labs, this course strives to provide the individual attention necessary to assure understanding by each attendant.
