What Therapists are saying about Glen Gillen’s courses:
This course did an excellent job of breaking down typical problems with neurologic upper extremity and presenting treatment interventions based on current research. I would highly recommend this to anyone who works with the adult neuro population.

Glen is probably one of the best speakers I’ve heard. His lecture was organized, knowledge-based and occasionally witty! I would recommend this to everyone.
Sheryl Morianty
Glen used a great mix of lecture, slides, personal stories and video to keep the course interesting. I definitely feel that I have learned some great ways to improve my clinical skills as an OT.

No matter how long I’ve been practicing, I find it refreshing to attend education courses that make me really look at how I practice and how I can be a better therapist. Thank you. Melissa Mielcars
