Continuing Professional Education

Are you interested in presenting a one-hour seminar as part of the annual Rehabilitaiton Science Seminar Series? Email Cheryl Lucas, clucas2@buffalo.edu.

Free live online trainings occur eight times each year, delivered by the monthly  Rehabilitation Science Seminar Series, and the biannual Glen E. Gresham Lecture. 

In-person options for these dates on UB's South Campus are also available.   

An exit quiz must be passed at the end of each training in order to have your New York State continuing education pdf emailed to you the following week.  If you are licensed outside of New York State, please check your state licensing board to see if New York CE credit will be accepted.
