Dear Esteemed Colleagues,

I hope you all enjoyed watching the 2024 Paris Olympics as much as I did and seeing Team USA podium for a record amount since 1984!  I know many of you either worked with these athletes directly at the games or during training leading to this summer, and all that effort really paid off.  I am also anxiously awaiting the Paralympic Games starting on August 28th, I greatly encourage everyone to tune in to these amazing athletes giving their all.

First, a quick note about our upcoming exams: The written exams for the CCSP® and the DACBSP® are scheduled for November 2nd, 2024. This is an important milestone for those of you working toward certification and to ensure everything goes smoothly, please remember that all exam-related documents must be submitted by September 30th, 2024. Meeting this deadline is crucial to allow us to prepare adequately and provide a seamless examination process.

Although the board has decided to not hold a practical exam this fall, I encourage you to use this time to focus on the written component, ensuring your knowledge is up-to-date and ready for the test.  If needed, we will grant extension to the 3-year time frame for completion of the practical exam.

Looking ahead to 2025, we are also deep into preparations for the 2025 Sports Sciences Symposium. This event is a fantastic opportunity for learning, networking, and growth within our community. If you know of any vendors interested in showcasing their products and services at the symposium, or any products and vendors that you love to use in your clinics, please send them to the National Office at [email protected].

Thank you for your continued dedication to excellence in sports chiropractic. Your commitment to advancing your expertise and serving athletes at all levels is what makes our community truly outstanding!
