Course Overview
This course provides a comprehensive exploration of cognitive dysfunction, examining its clinical presentation in detail. Participants will explore the 15 aspects of executive functioning. Moreover, the roles of key brain regions such as the prefrontal cortex, parietal lobes, temporal lobes, and cerebellum in learning and cognition will be elucidated, offering insights into the neural underpinnings of cognitive function.

Participants will gain insights into the utility of neurocognitive testing as a valuable tool for tracking healing and changes in cognitive function. Through functional examination, the course will spotlight the prefrontal cortex and cerebellum, shedding light on their roles in cognitive processes and dysfunction.

The course will delve into the intricate relationship between cerebral blood flow and cognitive function, particularly following concussions. We will cover acupuncture strategies for treating disorders of consciousness. Specific acupuncture points for increasing anterior and posterior cerebral blood flow will be discussed, alongside an electro-acupuncture protocol designed to enhance blood flow to the prefrontal cortex.

Through this comprehensive curriculum, participants will emerge equipped with the knowledge and skills to effectively address cognitive dysfunction using acupuncture and complementary modalities.

    *CEU/CPD Approvals

    Some accreditation bodies have course approval expirations. If the approval expires, you will see a notice next to the name with a date of expiration: "[Until YYYY/MM/DD]". Please factor this date into your own renewal deadline. If an approval expires, you will be able to request that it is renewed and we will submit it for you within 2 business days. Renewals normally come back to us after 30 days. If your accreditation body is not listed under the "Approved" section, you may find it under the "Pending" section. That means that it is either currently pending approval, or that it is available for you to request: "[Upon Request]". New course approvals usually come back to us after 45 days. We use an automated system within our platform that allows you to make these requests in an easy and convenient way. Just visit the course page in your Net of Knowledge account and click the "Request Approval" button at the top. Each "Course and CEUs/CPDs" purchase grants you 1 request per accreditation body. If you request a course approval and do not complete it before its new expiration date, you will need to purchase another "CEU/CPD Add-On" to make another request. If the course is ineligible for approval with an accreditation body due to their subject-matter policies, it will be listed as "[Ineligible]", and no requests will be possible for the course.
