Continuing education credit (CE) is provided by University of Western States (UWS) License Renewal: While applications relating to credit hours for license renewal in selected states have been executed for these programs, it remains attendees’ responsibility to contact the state board(s) from whom they seek continuing education credits for purposes of ensuring said board(s) approve both venue and content as they relate to any seminar/course/lecture/webinar/online presentation (event). Neither a speaker’s or exhibitor’s presence at said event, nor product mention or display, shall in any way constitute UWS endorsement. UWS’s role is strictly limited to processing, submitting, and archiving program documents on behalf of course sponsors. For specific information regarding state renewal requirements, please contact your state board directly.

Attendees are personally responsible for meeting their financial obligations to the university.  Payment of tuition and fees is due on or before the day of the educational session. A full month’s interest at 18% per annum will be assessed on the last business day of the month if payment is delayed for any reason.  After three months of non-payment, any account will be forwarded to the collection agency.  Any past due debt to the university or any of its departments or auxiliary services is grounds for immediate termination of campus privileges.

A $35 non-refundable fee is included in the registration cost. Failure to cancel 72 hours prior to the seminar is non-refundable. Non-refundable does not mean you are not offered a credit towards another UWS continuing education course. Credit will be held up to one year of date of subject course. Every attempt is made to offer programs as announced. UWS reserves the right to adjust program faculty, location, dates, times, and/or tuition to accommodate unanticipated occurrences, to limit seating, or to cancel due to insufficient enrollment.  UWS is not responsible for any expenses incurred by registrants due to program adjustments or cancellation. Only those who are pre-registered can be notified in the event of changes/cancellation.

While University of Western States will transcript the continuing education credits for attendees, the material being presented solely reflects the views of the presenter and is not endorsed by University of Western States. Seminars are provided for educational purposes only. No treatment will be rendered by the presenter or attendees, even though instruction and demonstrations of various examination methods and therapeutic techniques may take place. Any advice or diagnostic/therapeutic procedures that are demonstrated or performed in the lecture/lab do not constitute a “doctor-patient” relationship and do not substitute for care that an attendee or model may/may not need.
