The course content was full of practical and immediate use intervention strategies - this is what we (OTs) need!
This was an excellent workshop - one of the best I have ever taken! It was well-organized, logical, comprehensive, and entertaining. I learned a great deal about the visual system, its impact on our clients' functional performance of daily living activities, ways to screen for visual problems, and a wealth of techniques for intervention. Very informative and practical - thank you!
This was a great course. Very informative. I feel as though I am ready to try these interventions on my patients.
This course was excellent. The material is all well organized and easy to reference. Information is pertinent and practical for OTs practicing in a variety of settings. I really appreciated the bits of humor throughout the lecture. Overall, I found this course to be helpful and I look forward to applying what I learned as well as a developing a working relationship with the optometrist in our facility to better treat our clients.
Dr. Scheiman's presentation was very engaging and informative. Great audiovisual skills and use of technology. Great information that can be applied in the hospital setting.
This workshop was well-presented to all therapists of different settings and environments.
This was a great workshop. I feel that you provided information I can begin using in the clinic immediately as well as information for future program development.
Dr. Scheiman's presentation was excellent, the manual was the most well organized that I have encountered in coordination with the presentation. The information in this seminar was just what I have been searching for in a vision seminar.
Dr. Scheiman's enthusiasm for and expertise in vision therapy is engaging and valuable. This course certainly met all of my expectations. Also I really enjoyed that Dr. Scheiman presented the information as an optometrists with a good understanding of OT and OTs potential to VT because it is clearly demonstrated how to successfully interact within an interdisciplinary situation.
I enjoyed the workshop very much. Very informative, gained knowledge about a variety of visual deficits. I have a clear picture of the 3-component model of vision and how OTs can intervene. Thorough presentation with a great spiral bound book that I can always go back and consult. Last, but nt least, excellent sitting breaks.
This course answered many questions that I had regarding my pediatric caseload. It also provided me with good resources to continue to learn and improve my practice.
As a COTA, I was concerned that I would be "over my head". However, Dr. Scheiman made the information very understandable and present in a logical and easy to comprehend manner.
