Cadaver Lab at the Nicholson Center
Take your surgical skills from the lecture hall to the dissection table at one of the nation’s premier surgical education facilities. This hands-on cadaver lab offers otolaryngologists a rare opportunity to practice and refine techniques in rhinology and sleep surgery under the direct guidance of expert faculty. Participants will work through key procedural skills including endoscopic sinus surgery approaches, nasal anatomy relevant to in-office and OR-based interventions, and upper airway surgical techniques for the management of obstructive sleep apnea. Space is strictly limited to ensure individualized instruction and meaningful hands-on time for every participant.
Practical Implementation for ENT and Outpatient Practices
Adding allergy services to your practice is one of the highest-impact steps you can take for patient care and practice growth — but getting it right takes the right workflows, the right team, and a clear operational framework. This full-day course guides physicians, APPs, nurses, and medical assistants through everything from allergy testing and vial preparation to immunotherapy protocols, compliance, and emergency preparedness. Led by experienced clinicians and allergy nurses who run these programs every day, you’ll leave with actionable tools and the confidence to build — or strengthen — a program that works for your entire team.
Cochlear Implant Hands-On Training PreCon in Partnership with ICIT.
Cochlear implant programming is a specialized skill that directly shapes patient outcomes — and there’s no substitute for hands-on time with the technology. This full-day workshop, offered in partnership with ICIT, gives audiologists, physicians, and anyone involved in post-surgical cochlear implant care dedicated, device-specific training across all three major manufacturers: Advanced Bionics, Cochlear Americas, and MED-EL. Participants move through structured hands-on sessions with each platform, followed by demonstration workstations covering tools like Otoplan and ESRT, with expert clinical audiologists guiding every step. Whether you’re new to CI programming or looking to deepen your proficiency across devices, you’ll leave with practical, immediately applicable skills — and a stronger foundation for supporting your cochlear implant patients from activation through long-term follow-up.
Cerumen Management Hands-on Workshop
Cerumen management is one of the most common procedures in audiology and ENT practice — and one of the most undertaught. This hands-on afternoon workshop gives APPs, hearing instrument specialists, early-career audiologists, and audiology and APP students a thorough grounding in both the science and the technique, led by A.U. Bankaitis, PhD alongside an ENT physician. Participants will work through ear canal anatomy, review the full range of removal methods, and get direct hands-on practice across multiple techniques — including microscope-assisted removal — in a supportive, small-group learning environment. Whether you’re building this skill from scratch or filling in gaps in your training, you’ll leave ready to perform cerumen management safely, confidently, and competently in clinical practice.
Foundational Allergy Mini-Course
Get up to speed — or sharpen what you already know — with a comprehensive afternoon of allergy education delivered by some of the most recognized names in the field. Designed for fellows, residents, APPs, and physicians seeking a high-yield refresh, this mini-course covers the full clinical spectrum: from allergy testing methods and immunotherapy models — including SCIT, SLIT, and OMIT — to pharmacotherapy, vial preparation, food allergy in ENT practice, anaphylaxis management, and the latest on biologics. World-renowned faculty guide you through both the fundamentals and the nuances, giving you the clinical grounding to evaluate, counsel, and manage allergy patients with greater confidence starting Monday morning.
