The Need for Highly Trained Clinicians is Greater Than Ever
With an increase in the prevalence of developmental disorders, the need for properly trained clinicians that understand the neurophysiology, know how to make the correct diagnosis, understand the co-management with various levels of healthcare and support, and have mastery of a functional neurology approach to treating these conditions is higher than ever.
That is why we created the Neurodevelopmental Disorders series. This NEW 6-module program builds on top of current best research and understanding of developmental disorders as well as the latest advancements in their treatment.

Our Pedagogy
We utilize a clinical flipped classroom where participants will have reading and study materials sent to them before the class begins. They will be able to familiarize themselves with the material and complete the necessary requirements that will allow them a superior educational experience.
We want our participants to develop lifelong learning skills and mastery of their clinical applications. Participants in our program will receive a continuous follow-up of training that is delivered to their smartphone, tablets, or computer after they have completed the program at no additional cost.
All participants are given access to the Carrick Institute library and Medline access. They will have direct access to published scientific papers that will complement their learning and increase their clinical skills.
Why the Carrick Institute?
The Carrick Institute has provided clinical graduate school education for healthcare professionals for over four decades. Our faculty are experienced clinician educators that have an international reputation for excellence.
