Certificate of Competency in Concussion Management Course
Enrollment is Open!

This 6-week evidence-based concussion management competency course, created by healthcare professionals, acknowledges the value of your time and is designed to allow you to participate whenever it suits (or fits into) your schedule.
The Certificate of Competency in Concussion Management (CCCM) Course provides you a convenient and flexible path to advanced training in concussion management through online coursework and a final examination.
To earn your Certificate of Competency in Concussion Management, you must complete the assigned coursework and weekly assignments, and pass the final examination. You can retake the exam up to three times to achieve the minimum required score of 80 or higher.
With this training, you'll deep dive into a comprehensive intake and review of past medical history from the patient and/or caregiver, including identification of yellow flags to identify psychological stressors and risk factors that may affect their outcomes. We'll identify the most appropriate assessments based on current trends and research in concussion management as well as integrate targeted interventions based on impairments identified through reliable tests and measures and specific concussion trajectories.
We'll discuss the sequencing and progression of a variety of treatment strategies that are specific to the patient and the cause of concussion. Our content focuses on the continuum of care for a comprehensive concussion program from baseline to time of injury to post-injury and throughout the recovery process. Our content goes beyond vestibular by addressing evaluation and treatment approaches for cognition, vision, the neck, and exertion. We also discuss the impact on recovery with nutrition, poor sleep patterns, and anxiety. You'll learn about technologies and clinical assessment tools as well as how to incorporate findings into a rehabilitation program.
The CCCM content is hosted in our interactive, online learning platform, 360NeuroGO, to help you succeed through interactive modules, quiz and exam question banks, discussion boards, live chats, and so much more!

CCCM Discussion Board Assignments
Real Time Feedback in 360NeuroGO
At the beginning of each week, faculty will pose questions relevant to that week's unit. There are a total of 6 lesson units.
These questions will be based on a brief case study. You are responsible for TWO posts each week:
Posts are due by midnight (CST) on Sundays. Responses for both posts can be brief -- a minimum of 3 sentences.
Since this is a guided course, staying current with each week's post is recommended. But we allow for flexibility. The requirement is that all assignments (2 posts for each unit) are completed before you can complete the CCCM final examination. Suppose you fall behind, just direct message us. This is a guided course, but we allow for flexibility when needed.
These questions will be based on a brief case study. You are responsible for TWO posts each week:
- Post 1: Respond to a minimum of 2 questions posted by faculty with 1 reference for each. References can be from an article or a lecture. Faculty responses are due by midnight (CST) on Sundays.
- Post 2: Post a question or share a clinical experience in What's on your mind? (in the Member Hub). No reference is needed. This post does not have to be specific to the lesson content but a relevant concussion-related topic of discussion. Faculty can assist in this assignment.

- Differentiate between concussion and other head injury presentations using current diagnostic criteria and evidence-based clinical indicators.
- Evaluate and prioritize examination procedures for post-head injury assessment, incorporating evidence-based risk factors and prognostic indicators across the lifespan.
- Synthesize examination findings to identify key impairments and differentiate between vestibular, visual, cervicogenic, and other post-concussion symptoms in complex cases.
- Assess post-concussion visual dysfunction through a comprehensive examination and determine its impact on daily function, academic/work performance, and recovery trajectory.
- Analyze the interaction between vestibular, visual, cervical, and cognitive systems to determine primary drivers of dysfunction and develop integrated treatment approaches.
- Compare and contrast assessment and management strategies across different patient populations (pediatric, collegiate athlete, older adult) to develop population-specific treatment approaches.
- Demonstrate advanced clinical reasoning through guided case analysis and peer discussions, incorporating feedback to develop comprehensive management strategies that address physical, cognitive, and psychosocial aspects of recovery.
Intervention & Treatment Planning
- Design and modify individualized rehabilitation programs by integrating vestibular, visual, cognitive, and exertional interventions based on examination findings and recovery phase.
- Evaluate treatment effectiveness using standardized outcome measures and modify intervention progression based on patient response and recovery patterns.
- Design targeted interventions for patients with persistent symptoms by identifying underlying contributing factors and modifying treatment based on individual response patterns.
Return to Activity & Progressive Care
- Determine appropriate return-to-activity progressions specific to different contexts (school, sport, work, daily living) based on current guidelines and individual patient factors.
- Integrate current research evidence with clinical expertise to make informed decisions about return-to-activity protocols for complex concussion cases.
Professional Practice & Interdisciplinary Care
- Coordinate patient care within a multidisciplinary framework by determining appropriate referral timing and selection based on specific clinical presentations and recovery patterns.
- Implement appropriate outcome measures across the recovery continuum to document progress and guide clinical decision-making.
