Parker Seminars recently held its largest chiropractic seminar in Las Vegas, Nevada where doctors of chiropractic, chiropractic students, and chiropractic assistants attended. The seminar included classes in business, techniques, marketing and communications, patient procedures and practice management, science and nutrition, philosophy and inspiration, and training for chiropractic assistants.

I mentioned earlier this summer that there’s a bunch of chiropractic events and seminars taking place in August and September for 2013. The Life West Wave takes place this weekend in San Francisco California, Schofield Chiropractic Training is taking place in Phoenix on Friday and Saturday, and Dynamic Essentials is taking place in Atlanta. I received information from Parker Seminars and from Dynamic Essentials and wanted to share that here.

The Federation of Chiropractic Licensing Boards (FCLB) selected Parker University President Dr. Brian McAulay to present the Annual Joseph Janse Lecture during its 87th Annual Congress Conference held in San Francisco, California May 1-5. Honored as the first Parker representative to present the legendary Joseph Janse Lecture, Dr. McAulay was selected by a committee of the FCLB board. Joseph Janse Lecture speakers are chosen based on their oratory skills, ability to envision future possibilities, and to encourage the audience of regulators to consider new points of view, new perspectives in their approaches to public protection.

The Dallas Business Journal awarded Parker University as one of the Healthiest Employers in North Texas for the second consecutive year at its annual Healthiest Employers Program. Ranked third in the midsize company category, Parker was recognized for creating a healthy workplace.

January 2013 is time for chiropractic education and motivation in Las Vegas, Nevada. I’ve often said before that January is the perfect time to begin a year and chiropractic with a conference extravaganza. The Rio Hotel in Las Vegas at Parker Seminars is the perfect place to start. As always, this year features stellar speakers and educators, and one of the largest expo halls available to the chiropractic profession. See you in Las Vegas!
