The power of case-based online learning
Clinical professionals are used to learning every day during their patient encounters - by solving problems and answering relevant questions. Therefore we take the latest evidence-based information and weave it through tailored clinical cases. We avoid dry Powerpoint-style presentations and engage you with patient stories and fantastic visuals. This makes learning easy, fun and memorable.
Each activity starts with a common patient presentation and then walks through the problem-solving process. We weave in the latest scientific evidence to bring greater knowledge and certainty to the way you manage patients every day. As you go, you'll build a reference library of 'drills' to refer back to when the relevant patient presents.
1. Our Diagnostic Drills will challenge you and sharpen your diagnostic thinking skills.
2. Our Communication Drills will test your ability to handle tricky situations and help you to speak and write with authority when it counts.
3. Our eLearning Episodes will engage you with patient stories and fantastic visuals that are designed to simulate the patient encounters that you have every day.
4. Our Clinical MasterClasses are video recordings of our live Modules.

Your Pathway to Board Certification
The online learning component of the NMSM is a 'stand out' in terms of learning rigour, academic standards, convenience and cost. More than ever, chiropractic doctors are striving to become board certified, as they appreciate the greater level of recognition and opportunity that comes with training.
The NMSM is different to any other training program, and you can find out more about why it has become the program of choice for achieving board certification by clicking on the link below.

1. YOU CAN START ANYWHERE
As a doctor, you learn through clinical experience. Your day is not structured into a series of clinical topics, or based upon a rigid course outline.
Rather, you continuously learn based upon what comes through your door next. So this is how we have designed the NMSM online learning. It is 250 hours of simulated clinical practice that covers all types of presentations that you encounter. In practice, your next case could be anything. So it's the same with the online learning programs - your learning journey can start anywhere you like.
2. IT'S NOT TOPIC BASED, IT'S PRACTICE BASED
The traditional model of clinical education has been topic-based. A particular discipline is divided into information topics, which are worked through in a structured order. So you might start with the cervical spine and work your way through all of the listed conditions and then the lumbar spine, then the shoulder etc. But this doesn't match the reality of your daily practice.
In contrast, we organise your learning to match what you're dealing with in practice right now. You can complete the learning activities based upon your clinical curiosity, and to match the patient cases that you are currently managing.
3. WE DON'T START WITH THE DIAGNOSIS, WE START WITH A PROBLEM
A 'diagnosis' or 'named condition' doesn't walk through the door of your practice. A patient with a problem to be solved does. The traditional 'topic-based' teaching programs are organised based upon a diagnosis as the start point. You begin with a diagnosis that you wish to study, and then lay out all of the information about that condition and how to recognise it clinically.
However, actual clinical practice works in the reverse. Your patients walk in with a complaint, which requires clinical problem solving to reach a diagnosis. So our online programs have been built that way from the ground up, using case-based exercises in problem solving.
4. IT'S NOT BASED UPON A 'SYLLABUS', BUT ON A 10 YEAR CROSS-SECTION OF CLINICAL PRACTICE
Over a 10-year period, we have compiled an extensive cross-section of clinical cases from practice - literally what has walked through the door. Each online learning activity starts with a patient scenario, presented in a way that better simulates real clinical practice.
To progress through each activity involves methodically solving a clinical case just as you would each day. For example, if a child presented to you complaining of anterior hip pain - where do you start with your thinking, and how do you work your way through to a diagnosis?
5. INFORMATION IS CONNECTED, NOT DIVIDED
We do not artificially arrange information in a disconnected way. For example, we don't think of 'imaging of the hip' and 'examination of the hip' as separate topics. Rather, we bring together all of the necessary information that is involved in solving a real case - just like you need to do in practice.
To solve your next case might require you to weave together all sorts of knowledge from different topic areas. For example, the appropriate knowledge base may include lumbar disc pathology, the neurological examination of the lower limbs, an understanding of fat-saturation MRI sequences to identify the most likely pain-producing lesion, best practice management of disc lesions, and how to effectively communicate your diagnosis to the patient's medical doctor.
Under the older educational model, this information would exist under different topic areas and be presented in a separate and disconnected way. Importantly, the powerful effect of bringing that knowledge together to solve a problem is not effectively realised.
In contrast, we weave all of that knowledge together into one learning activity, within the context of solving a clinical problem.
6. WE GIVE YOU NEW INFORMATION WHEN YOUR BRAIN IS THE MOST RECEPTIVE
New information is most relevant when you need it to make a decision. As a clinician, your knowledge is organised and held together by clinical experiences. Patient encounters become the 'glue' that sticks data together into useful knowledge and practical skills.
Each learning activity that we design provides new knowledge within a clinical experience. During the coursework we insert the latest evidence and key clinical distinctions - just when you need it - as each key decision point arises along the way. This approach is the key to strengthening your clinical decision-making and maximizing your learning effectiveness.
7. IT IS EXTREMELY COST-EFFECTIVE AND TIME-EFFECTIVE
The NMSM online has taken over 10,000 hours and over 2.5 million dollars to develop. The challenge when creating the NMSM online, was to maintain a high quality learning experience while moving to a web-based medium for delivery. The result - an online format that hugely increases both the cost-viability and time-viability of becoming board certified.
Attending live seminars to achieve education hours for board certification is expensive, especially when you consider:
1. Flights and accommodation
2. Cost of the program
3. Any time out of practice
4. Time away from family and productivity lost in travel time
One weekend to obtain 15 hours could easily be the equivalent of $2000 (if travel and accommodation are involved). If you then add in the cost of time out of practice, that figure increases even more. $2000 is equivalent to $135 per education hour ($33,750 for 250 hours as a conservative estimate). Even if that figure was as low as $1000, the cost would still be around $65 per education hour (more than double the cost of $30 per hour online for the NMSM).
The NMSM Online:
1. Reduces your travel costs and time
2. Reduces your time out of practice
3. Offers the convenience of pursuing the education at your own timing and pace
Together, all of these factors make the Neuromusculoskeletal Online Learning Program (NMSM Online) a 'stand out' in terms of learning rigour, academic standards, convenience, and cost.
The minimum requirement for eligibility is 300 hours of approved clinical training, which can now be completed entirely online. CDI currently has 310 hours of approved online learning available.
Online education hours can be purchased in either 10-hour blocks for US$330, or 50-hour blocks for US$1500. You can then undertake study at your own pace. To get started, simply click on the 'Enroll Now' button below. Then fill out your enrollment details and purchase your first block of hours.
