CCCA program approved by the Federation of Chiropractic Licensing Boards · PACE Provider #34015544 · Instant per-course certificates
The chiropractic assistant is the most patient-facing person in the practice — and the CCCA is the credential that formalizes their clinical training. Approved by the Federation of Chiropractic Licensing Boards, the Certified Chiropractic Clinical Assistant program equips assistants to support chiropractic therapies safely and expertly in the clinical setting: uniform training that improves clinical outcomes, reduces injuries from improperly applied therapies, and can satisfy the credentialing expectations of insurers and accreditors. The program's focus is clinical — X-ray procedures and front-office duties are outside its scope.
Every course is authored and taught by Monte Horne, DC — founder of CCEDseminars, faculty at Texas Chiropractic College's Post Graduate Studies Division, with 39+ years of clinical practice. A growing number of states license or regulate chiropractic assistants; the CCCA positions your practice ahead of that curve.
