DESCRIPTION:
The CCCM Course provides you a convenient and flexible path to advanced training in concussion management through online coursework and a final examination.
This 6-week evidence-based concussion management competency course, created by healthcare professionals, acknowledges the value of your time and is designed to allow you to participate whenever it suits (or fits into) your schedule.
To earn your Certificate of Competency in Concussion Management, you must complete the assigned coursework and weekly assignments, and pass the final examination. You can retake the exam up to three times to achieve the minimum required score of 80 or higher.
With this training, you'll deep dive into a comprehensive intake and review of past medical history from the patient and/or caregiver, including identification of yellow flags to identify psychological stressors and risk factors that may affect their outcomes. We'll identify the most appropriate assessments based on current trends and research in concussion management as well as integrate targeted interventions based on impairments identified through reliable tests and measures and specific concussion trajectories.
We'll discuss the sequencing and progression of a variety of treatment strategies that are specific to the patient and the cause of concussion. Our content focuses on the continuum of care for a comprehensive concussion program from baseline to time of injury to post-injury and throughout the recovery process. Our content goes beyond vestibular by addressing evaluation and treatment approaches for cognition, vision, the neck, and exertion. We also discuss the impact on recovery with nutrition, poor sleep patterns, and anxiety. You'll learn about technologies and clinical assessment tools as well as how to incorporate findings into a rehabilitation program.
The CCCM content is hosted in our online learning platform, 360NeuroGO, to help you succeed through interactive modules, quiz and exam question banks, discussion boards, live chats, and so much more!

At the beginning of each week, faculty will pose questions relevant to that week's unit. There are a total of 6 lesson units. These questions will be based on a brief case study. You are responsible for TWO posts each week:
Post 1: Respond to a minimum of 2 questions posted by faculty with 1 reference for each. References can be from an article or a lecture. Faculty responses are due by midnight (CST) on Sundays.
Post 2: Post a question or share a clinical experience in What's on your mind? (in the Member Hub). No reference is needed. This post does not have to be specific to the lesson content but a relevant concussion-related topic of discussion. Faculty can assist in this assignment.
Posts are due by midnight (CST) on Sundays. Responses for both posts can be brief -- a minimum of 3 sentences.
Since this is a guided course, staying current with each week's post is recommended. But we allow for flexibility. The requirement is that all assignments (2 posts for each unit) are completed before you can complete the CCCM final examination. Suppose you fall behind, just direct message us. This is a guided course, but we allow for flexibility when needed.
